Nobody's fault but mine Tryin' to raise my soul to light I'll raise my soul to the light Have a bible in my home Taught me how to read Bible and my soul tonight. Tryin' to raise my soul to the light Got a bible in my home Ah, nobody's fault but mine

Nobody's fault Tell me that it's nobody's fault Say it's true, I know it's true I know it's true When they catch all they wanted from you And they find that's all you knew Pack your bags from another town It's time to move

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

I say your name I say I'm sorry It's nobody's fault No guilty party I just got nothing, nothing left to say It all, all catches up to me all the time You're sleeping night and day How d'you do it? Me I am wide awake

Sorry, you're so sorry Don't be sorry Man has known and now he's blown it Upside down and hell's the only sound, we did an awful job Eyes are full of desire Mind is so ill-at-ease Everything is on fire Out of rhyme or reason, everyone's to blame Children
