(down By The) Great Mistake Lyrics - Continental Drifters

I never felt so close to you 

I never been so far away 

Oh, and I know what you're going through 

So is that all you can say to me? 

Is that all you can say to me? 

Oh, I used to know you when 

Yeah, but you turned your back on me 

Well, I just got turned around myself 

Then what do you expect of me? 

Just what do you expect of me? 

It's a crazy world we live in 

It's a crazy road we take 

We could walk this way blindfolded 

Down by the great mistake 

Well, you used to be my hero, boy 

Till you parked the car in the lake 

Well, that wasn't strictly my idea, you know 

I parked down by the Great Mistake 

Well, you should've used your emergency brake 

If it worked I would've 

There'll be a lot of compromising 

And if that don't sound exciting 

Your money ain't no good here 

Down by the Great Mistake 

Woo! 

Oh man 

That hurt 

Alright, alright 

I think it's gonna work out just fine 

Oh, you can think that way if you like 

Oh, what would make you say such a thing like that? 

Hey, I'm not sayin' anything, I'm not sayin' anything 

There'll be a lot of compromising 

And if that don't sound inviting 

We can walk this way blindfolded 

Down by the Great Mistake 

Down by the Great Mistake 

Down by the Great Mistake 

Say did you ever get that towing bill? 

Is that what that was? 

Well it wasn't my cellular phone bill 

Oh man! 

I only had to call that AAA one time 

Or was it AA? I can't 

You can tell the difference 

You need to call somebody 

You need help!
