You Can Make a Mistake One Time Songtext
von The Del-Lords

You can make a mistake just one time, one time
You can make a mistake just one time, one time
You can make a mistake just one time
Pay for it the rest of your life
You can make a mistake just one time, one time

I bought a one-way ticket on a train to nowhere one time
I bought a one-way ticket on a train to nowhere one time
I bought a one way ticket on a train to nowhere
Don′t matter where I'm going, man, she don′t care
I bought a one-way ticket to nowhere one time

Got to the station at the wrong time, one time
Stood a little too long in the wrong line, one time
But I found a seat, found a bottle of wine
Don't know whose it was but now it's mine
Took a sip, settled in for the long ride
One time


Now I′m free at last, out on my own
Floating out here in the Twilight Zone
But if I look lost, destination unknown
Don′t cast me a line. I know where I'm goin′
I know exactly where I'm goin′
I'm goin′ right back even knowing what I'm knowing
Save me from myself
Save me from myself
Save me from myself, Lord, one time

She told me my very existence was a sin
Can you imagine a thing like that, well, she did!
I held my breath and I slipped away
Didn't exhale until today
Now I hear my train a comin′
One time

Make a mistake just one time, one time
You can make a mistake just one time, one time
You can make a mistake just one time
Pay for it for the rest of your life
Make a mistake just one time, one time
One time
