the well has run dry Lyrics

Longa ago they settled land

built their houses beside barren sands

A dozen or so all that they planned

But many more came

And they did the same

Kept building until

They'd covered the hills

They learned the value..... of water

Since the well.... has run dry

Others crossed plains searching for wealth

From northern states to southern belt

Staked their claims...took land by stealth

Climbed up the hills

Started to drill

Took the black gold

Now all of its sold

Didn't last ..... didn't trey

That well ......has run dry

Dirty machines

Drinking...... gasoline

That wont last ....you know why

That well ......has run dry

All this belongs in the past

We got to make...what we got last

These who are younger than us only ask

We hear what they say

Find other ways

Get what we need from wind and sun

We can still change.... what we've done

This well will never run dry
