The Well

The Well - Marcus King

Lyrics by：Dan Auerbach/Marcus King/Ronnie Bowman

Composed by：Dan Auerbach/Marcus King/Ronnie Bowman

When I was just a young'n

Bouncin' on my momma's knee

She said

Son there's only one thing

That sets your soul free

Wasn't no easy street where I come from

And there wasn't no sleep

Until the work was done

Papa was preaching

'Bout the fires of hell

If you want a drink of water

Got to go to the well

The cornerstone church tried to curse my soul

But the good Lord gave me that rock and roll

Let the spirit pull me under

To the bottom of the well

You wanna live forever

But you never can tell

So one for the money

To another show

Three for the father

Son and holy ghost
