Hell Or High Water - Intellectual

[Verse 1: Mike Campbell]

Come hell or high water, I'll find my way home tonight

Sometimes I feel so alone way down inside

From out of the shadows, she came to me, you see

I wasn't lookin’ for trouble, oh, no, not me

Three empty bottles under the bed

She said, "There's plenty more where that came from out in the shed"

Next thing I remember, I was playin' guitar

In some bar

Way on the outskirts of town

Comin' down

Everyone said, "She's the devil's daughter"

They did thеir best to drag her through the squalor

Shе can't be blamed for the sins of her father

Come hell or high water to get out of this

Under a flashing neon light, we lied

Chasing some wild dream through the night

He sang to me in soft, soothing tones

Words that gave me a shiver right through my bones

One slip of the tongue, one slip of the wrist

He lives his life on the edge, hand over fist

Deep in the darkness, we shared our last kiss

A lifetime of pain for one night of bliss

I dragged her out of the mud by her collar

She fell so hard, I barely caught her

And all she had on her was one silver dollar

Come hell or high water to get out of this

Come hell or high water

Hell or high water

Could be a case of mistaken identity

Sometimes, you can't tell your friends from your enemies

She looks so nice in the dress I bought her

Dancin' in the moonlight with all the night crawlers

She got away, they nearly caught her

Come hell or high water to get out of this

Come hell or high water
