My Mistake Blues

My Mistake Blues - Barbecue Bob

Ah my Mama told me this

I didn't believe it was true

My sweet mama told me this

I didn't believe it was true

She said won't no one treat you just like I used to

But I seen my mistake

After it was too late

I seen my mistake

After it was too late

But I tried not to worry

'Cause we're subject to mistakes

It's your error sweet mama

Honey but it's my mistake

Your error sweet mama

Honey but it's my mistake

You just 'bout killed me

I'll straighten that up some day

I'm out in this world today

Wandering from place to place

I'm out in this world today

Just wandering from place to place

Tryin' to find someone

Could cure a blues mistake

Oooh oooh

Honey what will I do

Hmmmm

Honey what will I do

Doctor said ain't no cure for these mistake blues

I'm down and I'm leavin' goin' far far away

I'm down and I'm leavin' goin' far far away

You've got to spend it sweet mama

I'll work up to you some sweet day

Hmmmm

Lord Lord Lord

'T'ain't no cure brown for these mistake blues
