Everybody Makes a Mistake

Out in the street, man, all night long

While the one that loves me, man, she was sitting at home

Oh, I been worried, I was a fool

Paying the bills and running around having fun, man

I know everybody make a mistake sometime

But when I got home, oh

My baby, she was gone

And I found a letter there, right there on the kitchen floor

It read, huh

"I tried to wait for you to come, honey

But like a fool, you were running around doing me wrong"

I'm sorry, I know, baby, everybody makes a mistake sometime

I know I made one

And oh, so, if you're running around with somebody else

Try to satisfy, man, you can't satisfy your selfish self

So, ah, man, you gotta take heed

Listen to every word I'm saying

'Cause that same thing, man, might happen to you one day

And you know that everybody

Man, I know that everybody makes a mistake sometimes

I know because I made mine

I made a great big one

Man, I made mine

I made a great big one

And I can't do it no more

No, I'm never gonna do it

I won't do it, come back to me, baby

Help me make you warm now, baby

I love you, darling

I love you, baby

Ah, honey

I just won't stay out in the street all night

And I won't stay out in the street, baby

I just sit at home with you darling

And hold your trembling hands...
