Up to my neck in trouble
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 the railroad track
Waitin' for the train
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 wishin'
That this life wasn't mine
What can I do
Oh what can I do
You did what no one else would do
