Text: Otis Redding. The Immortal Otis Redding. Nobody's Fault But Mine.

I couldn't love you your way
Yet and still you came to see me day by day
But now I miss you all the time
No heart can be as sad as mine
Ain't nobody's fault but mine

What will lie due tomorrow
Burden down and suffer with my sorrows
But cryin' ain't gonna help me knock
I made a mistake anyhow
It ain't nobody's fault but mine

Got to but, one day I got to pay
For my mistakes, y'all
It's gonna carry me
Straight to my grave, ooh
I gotta tell you now, ooh
I wanna tell you sum'n

Instead of you tryin' to spend my money
Yet your favorite word was to call me 'honey'
But I was just a doggone fool
Tryin' to be so doggone cool
Ain't nobody's fault but mine

I thought I done did it
I made a big mistake, y'all, right
I did somethin' wrong too
Nobody's fault but mine
And it ain't nobody's fault but mine

I did the wrong thing to you, girl
Somebody help me now
I need a little bit of help now
