Wishing Well

Father, please forgive me

I think I messed it up

I found a new rock bottom

I got down here on my luck

I got married to misfortune

In sickness and in health

We threw all of our pennies

To the bottom of the wishing well

We counted up our treasures

Counted down the days

We didn't have much of either

But who's counting anyways?

Everyone's got reasons

For keeping to themselves

Throwing all of their pennies

To the bottom of the wishing well

I was smoking like a chimney

Drinking like a fish

I emptied out my pockets

And I made myself a wish

I can't bring anything to heaven

And that's where I wanna dwell

So I threw all of my pennies

To the bottom of the wishing well

When you really think about it

What more do you need

Than a mason jar of moonshine

And a little bit of weed

And somebody sitting with you

Who just wants to help

To throw all of your pennies

To the bottom of the wishing well

I was smoking like a chimney

Drinking like a fish

I emptied out my pockets

And I made myself a wish

I finally made it up here to heaven

Yeah now that's where I dwell

Cause I threw all of my pennies

To the bottom of the wishing well

I threw all of my pennies

To the bottom of the wishing well
