Nickel In The Well

(album: Under The Kudzu - 1993)

I've got a four leaf clover and a horseshoe on the wall
I threw salt over my left shoulder
I'll try anything at all, to get lucky with you
I want you so much, until you want me too
I ain't gonna give up

[Chorus:]
I'll throw another nickel in the well
Tell myself this time maybe it'll help
To make my dreams come true
I'll make another wish upon a star
Just in case you're out in your backyard
Looking up there too
With a lot of love and a little luck, you'll fall like I fell
I just cross my fingers and throw another nickel in the well

If I could get Houdini to teach me a trick or two
Then maybe you would see me
In the way I want you to
I'm going to knock on wood
It ain't been easy, I've done everything I could
To make you need me

[Chorus]

And with a lot of love and a little luck, you'll fall like I fell
I just cross my fingers and throw another nickel in the well
I just cross my fingers and throw another nickel in the well
