Deeper Well |
Sun burned hot it burned my eyes |
Burned so hot I thought I’d died |
Thought I’d died and gone to hell |
Looking for the water from a deeper well |
So I went to the river but the river was dry |
I fell to my knees and I looked to the sky |
Looked to the sky and the Spring rain fell |
I drank the water from a deeper well |
Well well well well |
I drank the water from a deeper well |
Well I fell in love like a baby child |
Fell for a touch and I fell for a smile |
Smile turned bitter and her touch turned cold |
I could not keep what I could not hold |
So I ran with the moon and I ran with the night |
And the three of us made a terrible sight |
Whored and we gambled with the money we’d steal |
Looking for the water from a deeper well |
Well well well well |
Looking for the water from a deeper well |
Well the moon got weak and he soon was gone |
And the night got sick and he died with the dawn |
Died with the dawn with a drink in his hand |
Too sick to walk to drunk to stand |
Time stood still but I ran wild |
And I got my fill with a crooked smile |
Woke up on the floor of a jailhouse cell |
Looking for the water from a deeper well |
Well well well well |
Looking for the water from a deeper well |
Sun burned hot it burned my eyes |
Burned so hot I thought I’d died |
Thought I’d died and gone to hell |
Looking for the water from a deeper well |
So I went to the river but the river was dry |
I fell to my knees and I looked to the sky |
Looked to the sky and the Spring rain fell |
I drank the water from a deeper well |
Well well well well |
I drank the water from a deeper well |
