Up to my neck in strife Up to my neck in misery For most of my life i've been a fool And you know what a fool can do You came around when I needed you Now I'm up to my neck in you Up to my neck in pleasure Up to my neck in pain Up to my neck on a railroad track Waitin' for the trains to come on through Oh, you knew my time was due You came around and you pulled me through Now I'm up to my neck in you Up to my neck in whiskey Up to my neck in wine Up to my neck in wishing That this life wasn't mine What can I do Oh, what can I do You did what no one else would do Now I'm up to my neck in you
