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 looked behind me at all the things I've done.

That's the 1st mistake I ever made.



I was born to a lonely women in a town called Buffalo.

Never knew the man who never stayed.

With my 12-string on my back I discovered every track.

That's the 1st mistake I ever made.



With a million hearts I've broken.

I never kept the score.

Memories of good love hate to stay.

But I still remember someone who loved me so much more.

That's the 1st mistake I ever made.



So, when nothing's worth the living and in the night I look above.

Prayed, about a million times I prayed.

I know my story ended when I lost my only love.

That's the 1st mistake I ever made.



I was born to a lonely women in a town called Buffalo.
