Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Nobody's fault but mine
Nobody's fault but mine
If I die and my soul be lost
Nobody's fault but mine
[Verse 2]
I say, I had a mother who could pray
I had a mother who could pray
If I die and my soul be lost
Nobody's fault but mine, yeah
[Verse 3]
Alright
Alright
Yeah, hey-now
[Verse 4]
Yeah-hey-now
[Verse 5]
I had a mother who could sing
I had a mother who could sing
If I die and my soul be lost
It's nobody's fault but mine, now
[Verse 6]
Nobody's fault but mine
Nobody's fault but mine
If I die and my soul be lost, now
If I die and my soul be lost, now
If I die and my soul be lost, now
If I die and my soul be lost
Nobody's fault but mine
