Ruth Brown-Looking Back

Looking back over my life
I can see where I caused you strife
And I know, yes, I know
I'd never make that same mistake again

Looking back over my deeds
I can see signs a wise man heeds
And if I just had a chance
I know, I'd never make that same mistake again

Once my cup was overflowing
But I gave nothing in return
Now I can't begin to tell you
What a lesson I have learned

Looking back over the slate
I can see love turned to hate
And I know, yes, I know
That I'd never make that same mistake again

Looking back over the slate
I can see love turned to hate
And if I just had a chance
I know, I'd never make that same mistake again

I'd never make that same mistake again
I'd never make that same mistake again
Oh, I'd never make that same mistake again

Sentimental Journey

Gonna take a sentimental journey
Gonna set my heart at ease
Gonna make a sentimental journey
To renew old memories


Got my bag, I got my reservation
Spent each dime I could afford
I'm like a child in wild anticipation
I long to hear that "All aboard!"

Seven, that's the time we leave at - seven
I'll be waiting up for heaven
Counting every mile of railroad track
That takes me back

I never thought my heart could be so yearny

Why did I decide to roam?

I'm gonna take this sentimental journey

Sentimental journey home

Seven, that's the time we leave at - seven

I'll be waiting up for heaven

Counting every mile of railroad track

That takes me back

I never thought my heart could be so yearny

Now, why did I decide to roam?

I gotta take this sentimental journey

Sentimental journey home
