My daddy used to tell me don′t be fooled by the thing you see
If you want to get to the heart of things you gotta look way down deep

There′s nothing worse than to take
In a drink that leaves you in the dirt

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

A good man needs a good woman she's the rock that'll make you strong
