The Well

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
