Wetband - "Digging A Well" |
All their lives, they've been digging a well Digging a well, all their lives Digging down further and further from the sun Digging on down...to where the water is found Breaking rock, cut-ting through clay Then calling up: "Haul it all away" Calling up: "Haul it all away" The dry desert wind burns down your body & mind Till you have to dig down To where there's water to find The world above so dead and dry Just had to try, for the water of life Just had to try, for the water of life Cold below the desert and the burning sun Heading on down...when the day's begun Hauled up and out at the end of the day Scrub off the dirt, be on your way Scrub off the dirt, be on your way All your lives, you've been digging a well Digging a well, all your lives Digging down further and further from the sun Digging on down to where the water is found Breaking rock, cut-ting through clay Then calling up: "Haul it all away" Calling up: "Haul it all away" Digging and digging and digging so far down So far down, I swear we'll never be found One day, we'll just never be found But one fine day they will find a hole They'll find a Deep, Dark & Dangerous Hole And the preacher will say we were... Hellbound in Darkness Well if that's so, come on, baby, let's go Well if that's so, come on, baby, let's go Cause all our lives, we've been digging a well Digging a well, all our lives Digging down further and further from the sun Digging on down, to where the water is found Breaking rock, cut-ting through clay Then calling up: "Haul it all away" Calling up: "Haul it all away" Cause all our lives, we've been digging a well Digging a well, all our lives Digging down further and further from the sun Digging on down, to where the water is found Breaking rock, cut-ting through clay Then calling up: "Haul it all away" Calling up: "Haul it all away" Copyright 2006 Wetsongs Music |
