Lyrics
Oh dig, dig, dig a little deeper in the well boys dig a little deeper in the well
If you want a good cool drink of water you gotta dig a little de per in the well
Dig, dig, dig a little deeper in the well boys dig a little deeper in the well
If you want a good cool drink of water you gotta dig a little deeper in the well
My daddy used to tell me don’t be fooled by what you see
If you want to get to the heart of things you gotta look way down deep
Second place don’t get it son a winner gotta come in first
there’s nothing worse than to take a drink that leaves you in the dirt
Dig, dig, dig a little deeper in the well boys dig a little deeper in the well
If you want a good cool drink of water you gotta dig a little deeper in the well
A good man needs a good woman she’s the rock that will make you strong
She?ll be there to lean on when the whole worlds going wrong
There ain’t nothing like good loving that’s how it?s meant to be
So find yourself a good woman son like your mama?s been to me
Dig, dig, dig a little deeper in the well boys dig a little deeper in the well
If you want a good cool drink of water you gotta dig a little deeper in the well
there’s a mighty river flowing where the water cool and sweet
don’t be fooled by a muddy stream be careful where you drink
Life is what you make it sometimes a living hell
If you want to find that promised land dig a little deeper in the well
Dig, dig, dig a little deeper in the well boys dig a little deeper in the well
If you want a good cool drink of water you gotta dig a little deeper in the well
Dig, dig, dig a little deeper in the well boys dig a little deeper in the well
If you want a good cool drink of water you gotta dig a little deeper in the well
Dig, dig, dig a little deeper in the well boys dig a little deeper in the well
If you want a good cool drink of water you gotta dig a little deeper in the well
