Ben Harper Well Well Well Lyrics

Well Well Well Lyrics

The man who stole the water will swim forevermore

But he'll never reach the land on that golden shore

That faint white light will haunt his heart

Till he's only a memory lost in the dark



Dig a hole in the ground straight down to hell

Till there ain't no more water in the well well well

When you're down on your knees with nothing left to sell

Won't you try to dig in a little deeper in the well well well?

Said, well well well, well well well



Now take care of your body like you care for your soul

Don't you dig yourself into a hole?

Until you've paid the price you can't know what it's worth

The air and water, the fire and earth



Now dig a hole in the ground straight down to hell

Till there ain't no more water in the well well well

When you're down on your knees with nothing left to sell

Try to dig in a little deeper in the well well well

I said, well well well, well well well
