"Tug O' War" lyrics

"Tug O' War"

Well I've been three sheets on the streets living sideways
I've been clear head, words in red on the right page
Between them Sundays and the nowhere-to-run days
Well I'm just one sip, one slip from the wrong way

I got an angel on my shoulder and the devil on my back
One's telling me "stay sober," one keeps handing me that Jack
This fork that's in the road has got me torn between a steeple and a liquor store
I got an angel and a devil playin' tug o' war
They playin' tug o' war

Crossroads, crossfire and I'm caught in the middle
Hangin' on by a thread and that thread is gettin' brittle
These voices in my head are so damn loud
And every time I pick one up I let one down

I got an angel on my shoulder and the devil on my back
One's telling me "stay sober," one keeps handing me that Jack
This fork that's in the road has got me torn between a steeple and a liquor store
I got an angel and a devil playing tug o' war

I'm in, I'm out, I'm up, I'm down
I'm lost, I'm found, was then, am now
I'm in, I'm out, I'm up, I'm down
I'm lost, I'm found, was then, I am now
You better know I am now

I got an angel on my shoulder and the devil on my back
One's telling me "stay sober," one keeps handing me that Jack
This fork that's in the road has got me torn between a steeple and a liquor store
I got an angel and a devil playing tug o' war
Yeah, they playin' tug o' war
I got an angel and a devil playin' tug o' war
They playin' tug o' war
