(Verse 1) |
|
I've got a very troubled mind |
|
Ten feet to go |
|
Ten feet behind |
|
I know I give my time |
|
But it's a long way down the line |
|
Lately I'm scared of being alive |
|
I've got my own dog barkin' when I walk inside |
|
Though what's the use of holding my pride |
|
I've only got one shot |
|
At being alive |
|
[:: CHORUS ::] |
|
I'm in some head high water |
|
Whiskey water |
|
I told my father I'd carry on his name |
|
With my sons and daughters |
|
Raise them taller(?) |
|
And I hang my head beneath the tin roof rain |
|
When I get through |
|
These fur coat blues |
|
[:: VERSE 2 ::] |
|
I though awhile about what to do |
|
I had me a case of them fur coat blues |
|
But that ain't nothin' new |
|
I've been here a time or two |
|
Lately I'm scared of being alive |
|
I've got this hesitation and it's running wild |
|
But what's the use of living in doubt |
|
I've only got one shot |
|
Till my time runs out |
|
[:: CHORUS ::] |
|
I'm in some head high water |
|
Whiskey water |
|
I told my father I'd carry on his name |
|
With my sons and daughters |
|
Raise them taller(?) |
|
And I hang my head beneath the tin roof rain |
|
When I get through |
|
These fur coat blues |
|
When I get through |
|
These fur coat blues |
