Lyrics for I Made A Mistake

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 Lord I 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 Lord I thought I was wrong I made another mistake Lord I thought I was wrong
