Lyrics
Don’t throw no coin in the wishing well Don’t throw no coin in the wishing well Cause once they're gone you can’t get ‘em back Shame to be around when a life runs flat Don’t throw no hope In the wishing well Baby’s crying in the wishing well Baby’s crying in the wishing well Echo on the wall coming out of the dark Momma's praying but the dream's too far It’s a prayer that’s crying From the wishing well Poison from the well comin’ out of the sink But if you don’t trust the water you got nothing to drink Pull that stone on top the wishing well Pull that stone on top the wishing well You can’t get clean what money won't spare It’s just not worth the pain you’ll bear Leave that dream Down in the wishing well
