VERSE:
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 wallow
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 bout 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
