Lyrics

I'm a real charmer
Daddy was a preacher from the old boy's school
He taught the fear of God and put the blame on you
He's always drunk in back alleyways
While mother and her lovers couldn't care anyway
So I drink from a jug of white lightning and rain and
Try to forget before I go insane
I'm sinking
Knee deep and getting deeper and deeper (hey!)
So low I don't know which way to go
I'm sinking
Knee deep and getting weaker and weaker (hey!)
So low I don't know which way to go
They looked right through me like I didn't exist
It's in their eyes I was meaningless
Was knocked out cold flat on my back
Out of the blue and into the black
So I drink from a jug of white lightning and rain and
Try to forget before I go insane
I'm sinking
Knee deep and getting deeper and deeper (hey!)
So low I don't know which way to go
I'm sinking
Knee deep and getting weaker and weaker (hey!)
So low I don't know which way to go
Night after night my world is spinning round
Day after day can't find no solid ground so alone
So alone, so alone
I'm sinking
Knee deep and getting deeper and deeper (hey!)
So low I don't know which way to go
I'm sinking
Knee deep and getting weaker and weaker (hey!)
So low, woah, I'm sinking
Knee deep and getting deeper and deeper yeah
Well, I don't know, I don't know
Knee deep
Getting weaker and weaker (hey!) yeah
Somebody save me
(Knee deep)
(Knee deep) (hey!)
(Knee deep)
(Knee deep) (hey!)
