1
Sun burned hot it burned my eyes
2
Burned so hot I thought I'd died
3
Thought I'd died and gone to hell
4
Looking for the water from a deeper well
5
So I went to the river but the river was dry
6
I fell to my knees and I looked to the sky
7
Looked to the sky and the Spring rain fell
8
I drank the water from a deeper well
9
Well well well well
10
I drank the water from a deeper well
11
Well I fell in love like a baby child
12
Fell for a touch and I fell for a smile
13
Smile turned bitter and her touch turned cold
14
I could not keep what I could not hold
15
So I ran with the moon and I ran with the night
16
And the three of us made a terrible sight
17
Whored and we gambled with the money we'd steal
18
Looking for the water from a deeper well
19
Well well well well
20
Looking for the water from a deeper well
21
Well the moon got weak and he soon was gone
22
And the night got sick and he died with the dawn
23
Died with the dawn with a drink in his hand
24
Too sick to walk to drunk to stand
25
Time stood still but I ran wild
26
And I got my fill with a crooked smile
27
Woke up on the floor of a jailhouse cell
28
Looking for the water from a deeper well
29
Well well well well
30
Looking for the water from a deeper well
31
Sun burned hot it burned my eyes
32
Burned so hot I thought I'd died
33
Thought I'd died and gone to hell
34
Looking for the water from a deeper well
35
So I went to the river but the river was dry
36
I fell to my knees and I looked to the sky
37
Looked to the sky and the Spring rain fell
38
I drank the water from a deeper well
39
Well well well well
40
I drank the water from a deeper well
