I Made a Mistake
Willie Nelson
I made a mistake Lord I thought I was wrong I said take it and git she said got it and gone So I'm writing it all down In this stupid ol' song I made a mistake Lord I thought I was wrong. I'm a lot like ol' Ripley on "Believe It Or Not" I told a big lie Lord and then I forgot I thought I was Jesus and believe me I'm not I thought I was right and I was wrong by a lot I feel a little like Elvis when he was alone I made another mistake LordI thought I was wrong. I made a mistake Lord and it's all on me I wouldn't admit it but it's easy to see So if anyone's praying a request I would make Is to mention my name 'cause I made a mistake. I'm a lot like ol' Ripley on "Believe It Or Not" I told a big lie Lord and then I forgot I thought I was Jesus and believe me I'm not I thought I was right and I was wrong by a lot I feel a little like Elvis when he was alone I made another mistake LordI thought I was wrong I made another mistake LordI thought I was wrong.
