Lyrics
In Over My Head
Jack Walker
Well I woke up this morning, not a care on my mind
Tasting something familiar, feeling far from fine
And I looked around and wondered, just where I was this time
The last thing I remembered was a bottle of Tequila and lime
So I huffed
And I puffed
And I yelled enough to wake the dead
Yea I huffed
And I puffed
Till the springs and I were rocking the bed
And when you came a running, Lord
I knew I was in over my head
You laid your pretty hand upon my feverish brow
You said, "Honey what?s the matter" all I croaked out was "how"
And you told me how we met up, how we lit up the night
And I knew I was in trouble cause I couldn?t even put up a fight
So I huffed
And I puffed
And I yelled enough to wake the dead
Yea I huffed
And I puffed
Till the springs and I were rocking the bed
And you looked at me and smiled
And said, "Honey you?re in over your head"
Well I know these kind of stories often have a bad end
You go your separate ways and you can?t even be friends
But we?re married with 4 children and another on the way
And there?s often quite a racket as we do this little game we play
Well we huff
And we puff
And we yell enough to wake the dead
Yea we huff
And we puff
Till the kids and I are rocking the bed
And they look at me and laugh
And say, "Daddy you?re in over your head"
