MEMPHIS SLIM
"I See My Great Mistake"
(Peter Chatman a.k.a. Memphis Slim)

I've got somethin' to tell you baby, don't let it break your heart
So long together, now we've got to part,
Because I'm tired, of findin' frogs for snakes
After these long many years, babe I just see my great mistake

You told me that you loved me, said you loved me all your life
I caught you 'round the corner, tellin' that same lie twice
You know I'm tired, of findin' frogs for snakes
After these long many years, babe I just see my great mistake

Once I used to love you, I couldn't help myself
Found out you'd given your love baby, to somebody else
You know I'm tired, of findin' frogs for snakes
After these long many years, babe I just see my great mistake

Ain't gonna be your dog no more, little girl!

Because now I see my great mistake

Now listen little girl, you don't worry my mind any mo'
Find out you're actin' funny, I'm sure gonna let you go
Because I'm tired, of findin' frogs for snakes
After these long many years, I just see my great mistake
