If I don't read my soul gets lost; nobody's fault but mine.

Had a Bible in my hand, had a Bible in my arm
If I don't read my soul gets lost; nobody's fault but mine.

My mother taught me how to read, my mother taught me how to read.
If I don't read my soul gets lost; nobody's fault but mine.

My mother taught me how to sing, y daddy taught me how to play.
If I don't play & sing all night long, it's nobody's fault but mine.
