down to the well



betty always knows

betty always tells

she laughing desperately

she said it felt like a river inside her bones

when she went down to the well



gonna be with her

she is gonna take me there

lead me by my hand

her body a rocking chair for my soul



i can hardly wait, baby

i can hardly wait

'til we gown to the well

down to the well



been thinking to myself

and if a life's not long

what matter does it make

if there'll be favorite songs

playing in my head

when we go down to the well



i can hardly wait, betty

i can hardly wait

'til we go down to the well

down to the well
