[Verse 1]
I ran like a speeding train
Cut my hair and changed my name
Only had myself to blame
For the company I was keeping

Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh

[Verse 2]
Curse my restless wandering feet
Prone to wander endlessly
All the love you gave to me
Oh, it wasn't enough to keep me

[Chorus]
’Cause, oh, I stole from my father
All I thought I could sell
Tossed his copper, and I watched as it fell
But there wasn't any water in the wishing well

[Verse 3]
Bent my knee to many kings
Idols of prosperity
Heard that dollar calling me
So I sought it in the city
[Chorus]
'Cause, oh, I stole from my father
All I thought I could sell
Tossеd his copper, and I watched as it fell
But thеre wasn’t any water in the wishing well

For my soul, he made an offer
To the dust, again, I fell
Oh, that devil's got a hold on me now
'Cause there wasn't any water in the wishing well

Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
