Lyrics & Music: Stuart Adamson & Jerry Boonstra

You’ve got some nerve
Telling me what’s right
I’ve got the urge
To set you straight tonight

Are you a TV mystic
Do you have the second sight
Better know the enemy
Before you pick a fight

Between the sun and my shadow
That’s where I’ll be
Between hell and high water
She comes looking for me

I’ve got a bad, bad feeling
Ah, but what the hell
As long as I stay between the sun and my shadow
I guess I’m doing well

So what
So I’m a little drunk
What’s it to you
I ain’t some kind of monk

I know what’s wrong and right
And I prove it every day
Worn out trying to listen
For the things she doesn’t say

Between the sun and my shadow
That’s where I’ll be
Between hell and high water
She comes looking for me

I’ve got a bad, bad feeling
Ah, but what the hell
As long as I stay between the sun and my shadow
I guess I’m doing well

Between the sun and my shadow
That’s where I’ll be
Between hell and high water
She comes looking for me

I’ve got a bad, bad feeling
Ah, but what the hell
As long as I stay between the sun and my shadow
I guess I’m doing well

Between the sun and my shadow
That’s where I’ll be
Between hell and high water
She comes looking for me

I’ve got a bad, bad feeling
Ah, but what the hell
As long as I stay between the sun and my shadow
I guess I’m doing well
