Rory Gallagher - Should've Learnt My Lesson (Deuce Session / Alternative Acoustic Take / 1971)

Should have learned my lesson Long, long time ago Should have learned my lesson Long, long time ago But like a, like a mule I've always learned my lesson slow Well, I'm feeling Tired as a bad pair of shoes When you don't fit You know that's the time to move But if you had my trouble You'd be crying too I should have taken My friend's advice I should have listened To my best friend's advice He said you must be prepared to lose If you choose to toss the dice My first mistake Was when I thought that you'd be true My first mistake Was when I thought that you'd be true Now I realize That was a foolish thing to do
