Momma, I know the well is dry Sing me a song one more time The wind is raging and the birds won't fly Nothing to eat and nowhere to hide Momma It's gonna be all right Tell me the stories one more time Where the grass is green and the water runs wild Where forever is forever and no one has to die 'cause you can't drink the dirt even if you wanna You can't eat the dirt even if you wanna You can't breathe the dirt even if you wanna But you'll be in the dirt You will be in the dirt Momma, I know I'm ready now I'm not afraid, you don't need to cry I'll just close my eyes and wake up to a new life Momma, there's no need to cry 'cause you can't drink the dirt even if you wanna You can't eat the dirt even if you wanna You can't breathe the dirt even if you wanna But you'll be in the dirt You will be in the dirt
