[Verse 1]
Well, my nerves are exploding, my body's tense
Feel like the whole world got me pinned up against the fence
I've been hit too hard, I've seen too much
Nothing can heal me now but your touch
I just don't know what I'm gonna do
I was all right 'til I fell in love with you

[Verse 2]
My house is on fire, burns to the sky
I thought it would rain, but the clouds passed by
Well, I'm coming to the end of my way
God is my shield, he won't lead me astray
I just don't know what I'm gonna do
I was all right 'til I fell in love with you

[Verse 3]
Well, the boys in the street beginning to play
Girls like birds are flying away
Sorrow and pity rule thе Earth and the skies
I'm not looking for nothing in anyone's еyes
Like I said, I don't know what to do
I was all right 'til I fell in love with you

[Verse 4]
Well, the junk is piling up, just taking up space
Claustrophobia's breathing into my face
When I'm gone, you'll remember my name
I'm gonna win my way to wealth and fame
And I don't know what I'm gonna do
I was all right 'til I fell in love with you
[Verse 5]
Well, I'm tired of talking and trying to explain
My attempts to please you were all in vain
Tomorrow night before the sun goes down
If I'm still among the living, I'll be Dixie bound
I just don't know what I'm gonna do
I was all right 'til I fell in love with you
