You thought you were taking candy from a baby
But I caught you with your fingers in the pie
Now you'd better realize just what you're doing
Cause you'll never miss the water till the well runs dry

Oh you'll never miss the water till the well runs dry
You'll regret each and every time you've made me cry
You'll never miss me darling till I say goodbye
And you'll never miss the water till the well runs dry

[ guitar - steel ]
Well I've headed up to here with all your cheatin'
And those little lies you tell me on the sly
Now you'd better listen close to what I'm saying
Cause you'll never miss the water till the well runs dry

Oh you'll never miss the water till the well runs dry...
Oh you'll never miss the water till the well runs dry
