Bobby Bare Bottomless Well Letras:They say there he sits in his big white wicker
rocker Eatin' candy coated cashews sippin' orange
lemonade While a sweet young thing fans the flies
from off his eyebrows He's dozin' in the green
catalpa shade Lord they say that Jesse Langtree's
got it made
A little bit south of the Okechobee there's a
story that the swamp folks tell About a mean old
man named Jesse Langtree And a sweet young maid
and a bottomless well That water's cold but that
don't matter how deep it is no one can tell Just
drop a stone you'll never hear it splatter It just
falls down down forever in the bottomless well
Through fifteen miles of snakes and gators With
the raging fever and the trembling chills I
wandered lost through the Okechobee And there I
seen 'em sittin' there by the bottomless well Yeah
now there he sits... (Oh let's hear it for Jesse

I asked her for a drink of water and as Jesse
slept me and her we talked a spell She said that
she was his wife and daughter Lord Lord But his
heart was cold cold and dark as the bottomless
well And as he slept I bent to kiss her I heard a
loud and jealous yell Felt my head explode in
darkness two big hairy arms picked me up And
dragged me to the bottomless well I woke up in
fear and trembling I was staring down into the
jaws of hell As he held me high above his
shoulders A gonna throw me down down down to the
bottomless well Now here I sit in Jesse's big
white wicker rocker Eatin' his candy coated
cashews sippin' his orange lemonade While that
sweet young thing fans the flies from off my
eyebrows I'm dozin' in the green catalpa shade
Enjoying things that Jesse Langtree made oh God
bless you Jesse Now some folks say that sweet
thing pushed him but I was there and I'd swear he
fell But it ain't murder cause he ain't dead cause
he's still a fallin' Goin' down down forever in
the bottomless well Goin' down down down down down
bye Jesse
