Halfway Down

(jim lauderdale)

Raindrops on the treetops
Waiting there to fall
I know how theyre feeling
But Im only, yes Im only, halfway down

Fighting with the devil
Harder all the time
Sinkin to his level
But Im only, yes Im only, halfway down

Halfway down, just a getting started
Yes Im beginning on my journey now
But Ive only gotten halfway down
Halfway down, just a little bit farther
Well I believe you better catch me now
cause Im only going halfway down

Sippin shallow water
Sharks out for the kill
Almost hittin bottom
But Im only, yes Im only, halfway down

Halfway down, just a getting started
Yes Im beginning on my journey now
But Ive only gotten halfway down
Halfway down, just a little bit farther
Well I believe you better catch me now
cause Im only going halfway down
Yeah I hope you better catch me now
cause Im only going halfway down
Yes Im only going halfway down
Yes Im only going halfway down
