( Chorus 1 ) I don't make mistakes Mistakes make me You can see me walk on water Long as it stays a quarter inch deep And Sir I wasn't speeding And I WOULDN'T lie I was just parked in a place Where our Lord Had his scenery zipping by ( Verse 1 ) Took outta Wisconsin loan On a Detroit leanin' Tailpipe chokin' blue smokin' Delta Eighty Eight My favorite pregnant foil Yea we hope for a boy Backseat sleeping off Our last political debate She was born on the right side Of Metro Link's leering tracks For me I s'pose She makes up for truth that I lack ( Chorus 2 ) I don't make mistakes Mistakes make me You can see me walk on water Long as a quarter inch deep Worked at the amusement park Swore new Whiplash Weasel's safe My words they was buyin' Then into the double loops Bolts started flyin' ( Verse 2 ) Playing Cheatin' Yahtzee on the trunk lid Trouble on the Hood Pop - O - Matic's fifty years old Keeps on poppin' as it should Diggin' for rigamorticed chicken thighs Out back of Blueberry Hill Where Chuck performed his Duck Walks My Dad spins his cracklin' records still ( Bridge ) An officer recognizes us For something that we done Stealing New York style pizza slices Under the Missouri midday sun He reached for my lady's wrist I about come undone Then he says, "Since it's Tuesday And y'all three look hungry Let U. City by ya some" Never trusted cops before I could turn over a new leaf Sincerely it would feel lots better With a new family and all To thievery turn my other cheek ( Chorus 3 ) I've made enough mistakes Mistakes quit making me Started skating on water The frozen brand you see And ma'am if you could kindly fudge The speed limit up a smidge You could dance at our childs first wedding If ya don't believe me Offer up your sale of the Brooklyn Bridge ( Verse 3 ) Baby he starts kickin' Or her if he's a girl Jungleland saxophone solo Like a lightning storm unfurls It's sneakin' 'round a thoughtful corner In the back seat with us it curls Created to both bring and wipe The tears from this wretched world
