The Oak Ridge Boys

Dig a Little Deeper In the Well

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
