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 |
