One Foot In The Grave

From conversation to a shout
I?ve got one foot in my mouth
Just when I think I?ve made the grade
I?ve got one foot in the grave

I am stumbling through the hills of paradise
You wouldn?t want to know my pain
Too little too late too often something?s dragging me down
Dragging me down

Just when I think I know what?s mine
I put one foot over the line
Just when I think I?ve got it made
I?m one foot in the grave

I am stumbling through the flames of paradise
You wouldn?t want to know my pain
And if I?m set on fire will you water me down?
Will you water me down?

I am stumbling through the hills of paradise
Will you give me something for the pain?
Too little too late too often something?s dragging me down
Dragging me down
Dragging me down
Something?s dragging me down

I?m one foot in the grave
I?ve got one foot in the grave
I?m one foot in the grave
I?ve got one foot in the grave
I?m one foot in the grave
