About the Artist
Lyrics
Betty always knows Betty always tells She's laughing desperately She said it felt like a river inside her bones When she went down to the well I'm gonna be with her She's gonna take me there Lead me by my hand Her body a rocking chair for my soul When we go down to the well I can hardly wait, baby I can hardly wait 'Til we go down to the well Been thinking to myself And if a love ain't long What matter does it make If there'll be favorite songs playing in my head When we go down to the well I can hardly wait, Betty I can hardly wait 'Til we go down to the well Down to the well Down to the well
