Hey-ey!
Nobody's fault-a but mine
Nobody's fault but mine
If I don't read, my soul be lost

I, have a Bible in my home
I have a Bible in my home
If I don't read my soul be lost

Hmm-mm
Father, he taught me how to read
Father, he taught me how to read
If I don't read my soul be lost
Nobody's fault-a but mine


(short guitar solo)

Lord, Lord
Nobody's fault but mine
If I don't read my soul be lost

I, have a bible of my own
I have a bible of my own

If I don't read my soul be lost

Oh-ooh
Mother, she taught me how to read
Mother, she taught me how to read
If I don't read my soul be lost
Nobody's fault-a but mine

(Guitar solo)


I
Lord, Lord
Nobody's fault but mine
If I don't read my soul be lost
And sister she taught me how to read
Sister she taught me how to read
If I don't read my soul be lost
Nobody's fault-a but mine
(Guitar Solo)
Ahhh
Umm-mmm
Lord, Lord
Nobody's fault but mine
If I don't read my soul-a be lost
Umm-mmm
(guitar solo to end)
