Lyrics for Nobody's Fault but Mine

I couldn't love you your way Yet and still you came to see me day by day But now I miss you all the time No heart can be as sad as mine Ain't nobody's fault but mine What will lie due tomorrow Burden down and suffer with my sorrows But cryin' ain't gonna help me knock I made a mistake anyhow It ain't nobody's fault but mine Got to but, one day I got to pay for my mistakes, y'all By and by, by and by It's gonna carry me, straight to my grave, ooh By and by, I got to tell you now, ooh I wanna tell you something Instead of you tryin' to spend my money Yet your favorite word was to call me 'honey' But I was just a doggone fool Tryin' to be so doggone cool Ain't nobody's fault but mine I thought I done did it I made a big mistake, y'all, right I did somethin' wrong too Nobody's fault but mine And it ain't nobody's fault but mine I did the wrong thing to you, girl Somebody help me now I need a little bit of help now
