paroles de chanson The Well - Charlie Musselwhite

I don't know if I told you
The story about a little girl
She fell way, way down in a
Deep old Texas well

I was on my way to work
When I heard it on the news
It took my attention
From a night of getting real loose

I've been drinking really heavy
For many long years, I was
Trapped in my well
Of trouble worry and fear

This little girl she was been
She was been so very brave
And I was drinking my way
To my early grave

Well now, why couldn't I?
Be as brave as she?
Dump all my deamons
Set myself free

As I prayed for her to live
And escape this dark well, I
Quit all my drinking
Broke out of my shell

For twenty years ago
When down the well she fell
It was twenty years ago
We have escaped from our hell, well now

That is my story
That's how your life can change
Only if you're open
To be a better man

To be a better man
