I got a shadow and it follows me around Wherever I go, it moves without a sound My odds are evil, that hunts me down and gets me Finds a way to trick me Then drowns me in the whiskey Hold up, I need some help The more you feed the beast, the more he raises hell I know I got a problem But you know what they say Smoke 'em if you got 'em Feeling good Probably better than I should It's gotten far I'm standing up here dancing on the wire There's no denying He came uninvited And I kinda like him the most Find me a preacher, I'm down on my knees I need a leader to break these chains off of me Don't let 'em hurt me, I'm getting kind of worried Vision's getting blurry, please, somebody hurry Feeling good Probably better than I should It's gotten far I'm standing up here dancing on the wire There's no denying We came uninvited And I kinda like him the most Pretty little angel, whisper in my ear Please just make him disappear I don't know if I can take no more Feeling good Probably better than I should It's gotten far I'm standing up here dancing on the wire There's no denying We came uninvited And I kinda like him the most Gotta wait for that sun to go down He's following me around It gets worse at night Alright, get me another drink
