Wishing Well

(album: Cream Of The Crop - 1968)

I'm going fishing in the wishing well I'm gonna get me back my dime
I made a wish but it didn't come true I get cheated every time
I didn't tell a soul about my wish so I didn't break the spell
Got lots of time and nothing special to do I'm going fishing in the wishing well

I closed my eyes and turned around three times threw it over my left shoulder
I wished to myself that when I saw you again my heart would be a little bit bolder
I'm going fishing in the wishing well 'cause when I look into your eyes
My heart got weak and made me run away just like all those other times

I closed my eyes and turned around three times threw it over my left shoulder
I wished to myself that when I saw you again my heart would be a little bit bolder
I'm going fishing in the wishing and when I get me back my dime
I'll add some with it for a wedding gown and save my wishes up for wedding bells
I'm going fishing in the wishing well I'm going fishing in the wishing well
