Deeper Well (#1)

Lyrics for Deeper Well (#1)

Well, ha ha Mm-hm Sun burned hot, it burned my eyes Burned so hot I thought I'd died Thought I'd died and gone to hell Lookin' for the water from a deeper well Went to the river but the river was dry Fell to my knees and I looked to the sky Looked to the sky and the spring rain fell I saw the water from a deeper well Well, well, well, well Lookin' for the water from a deeper well I was ready for love, I was ready for the money I was ready for the blood and ready for the honey Ready for the winnin', and ready for the bell Lookin' for the water from a deeper well Found some love and I found some money And I found that blood would drip from the honey Found I had a thirst that I could not quell Lookin' for the water from a deeper well Well, well, well, well Lookin' for the water from a deeper well So, I took to the road and I took to the song But I took it too fast and I took it too long They wanted my heart and they wanted my soul 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 were a terrible sight Nipple to the bottle to the gun to the cell To the bottom of a hole of a deeper well Well, well, well, well Lookin' for the water from a deeper well Well, I did it for kicks and I did it for hate And I did it for lust and I did it for faith Did it for need and I did it for love Addiction stayed on tight like a glove Hey there, mama, did you carry that load Did you tell your baby 'bout the bend in the road 'Bout the rebel yell 'bout the one that fell Lookin' for the water from a deeper well Well, well, well, well Lookin' for the water from a deeper well Well, well, well, well I drank the water from a deeper well
