I climbed high on a ladder Looked down on the valley of souls Fought hard to get here Burned some bridges, that took its toll So I made some mistakes We all do Sold somebody something That just wasn't new And I met an angel He said, just get in line Promised me a pardon He said I'll get to you when it's time Well I've made some mistakes We all do I told somebody something That just wasn't true And I'd take it all back But I have no excuse I made some mistakes What can I do? They printed in the paper Finally made the man The picture was dated Lost some weight since then I'm betting that angel Will finally see There's not a lotta trouble Left inside of me Well, I've made some mistakes We all do I sold somebody something Which just wasn't new And I'd take it on back But I have no excuse Yes, I've made some mistakes What can I do? Made some mistakes We all do Told somebody something That wasn't true Yes, I've made some mistakes We all do I told somebody something Baby that just was not true Yes, I've made some mistakes Yes, we all do I told somebody something That just wasn't true Yes, we've made some mistakes We all do I told somebody something What can I do?
