The Wishing Well Lyrics - Hank Snow

Oh, you can't be mislead by a name it is said 

You can't judge a book by it's cover 

And how one can tell what is down in a well 

Is a thing I have yet to discover 

Oh, down in the well-a, deep in the well-a 

How deep, oh, I couldn't tell-a 

Born into rumours that's running around 

Down in the well-a, deep in the a well-a 

Wish in the well-a, trust in the well-a 

And your true love, your true love may be found 

Oh, you may not believe, this tale will be true 

And scoff at the well as you go by 

But if you don't own a love of your own 

One day you may peak in and try 

Oh, down in the well-a, deep in the well-a 

How deep, oh, I couldn't tell-a 

Born into rumours that's running around 

Down in the well-a, deep in the a well-a 

Wish in the well-a, trust in the well-a 

And your true love, your true love may be found 

This story is old, this story was told 

To me when a very young man 

Back when I didn't own a love of my own 

But now I'm a family man 

Oh, down in the well-a, deep in the well-a 

How deep, oh, I couldn't tell-a 

Born into rumours that's running around 

Down in the well-a, deep in the a well-a 

Wish in the well-a, trust in the well-a 

And your true love, your true love may be found 

And your true love, your true love may be found
