The 1st Mistake I Made

I ain't got no claim to nothing
I don't mess with anyone
I walk my way living in a masquerade
And one day I look behind me
And all the things I've done
That's the first mistake I ever made
I was born to a lonely woman
In a town called Buffalo
Never knew the man that never stayed
With my 12-string on my back
I discovered every track
That's the first mistake I ever made
With the million hearts I've broken
I never kept the score
Memories of good love hate to fade
But I still remember someone
Who loved me so much more
That's the first mistake I ever made
So, when life ain't worth the living
In the night I look above
I pray about the million times I've prayed
I know my story ended
When I lost my only love
That's the first mistake I ever made
I was born to a lonely woman
In a town called Buffalo
Never knew the man that never stayed
With my 12-string on my back
I discovered every track
That's the first mistake I ever made
