Norman Greenbaum - The day the well went dry

^COh the day the well went dry I was caught with ^Gsoap in my eye. ^GSoap in my eye, made me cry The day the well went ^Cdry. ^CNo more water down in the well, Who do we know, ^Gwho can we tell? ^GWhere will we tell them? Say, Oh my! The day the well went ^Cdry.

'Cause there's ^Cno more water down... No more water ^Cdown... ^FNo more water ^Cdown in the well, ^GHoney, forget the ^Cpail.

^CWater witcham came today Said water was three-hundred ^Gfeet away ^GDrewer said, "A foot costs nine." What a price to ^Cpay! So I ^Chooked up a hose to my neighbor's yard. Said we could take all the ^Gwater we need ^G'Til we get our new well dug. "Just bein' neighbor^Cly."

'Cause there's ^Cno more water down... No more water ^Cdown... ^FNo more water ^Cdown in the well, ^GHoney, forget the ^Cpail.

^CEverybody's tryin' to cheer me up. Even gave me a ^Gbottle of rye. ^GBottle of rye, mud in your eye, Aint got the mud 'cause the ^Cwell is dry. ^CMy poor well is dry as a bone, It's hayday has ^Gcome and gone. ^GCome and gone, me oh my! The day the well went ^Cdry!

'Cause there's ^Cno more water down... No more water ^Cdown... ^FNo more water ^Cdown in the well, ^GHoney, forget the ^Cpail.
