Let's welcome to the stage, Carmen!
Yeah!
You see, if I'm acting a little funny, it's because I've been drinking.
Except, I've been drinking what they call the new wine, you know?
You see, some people, they get drunk with, uh, you know, Jack Daniels, Jim Beam, but I've been drinking from the well.
How many of you know what I'm talking about when I say I've been drinking from the well?
[G] [Ab] [A]
Well, [G] [Ab] [A] it happened about a year ago, a little church where I live, [G] [Ab] [A] had me a drink of that living water, [E] only God can give.
[Eb] [D] I came home, my family just stared at me, [Am] [A] and I knew what they was thinking.
[F] My daddy just put his hands on his hip and said, boy, [E] from what have you been drinking?
[Eb] Was [E] it a [Eb] bottle?
I said no.
[E] Was it a vat?
I [Eb] said no.
[E] He said, where [A] have you been drinking at?
I said, I've been drinking from the [Bm] well!
[Am]
[D] The [G] well!
[D] [A] The [D] well!
[A] No, [Bm] it's not [A] of, it's [D] that [Am] life-giving, living water [D] that flows [A] from God [E] above.
Well, you [A] can't find on Wall Street this sweet release that's worth more than all the oil in the Middle East.
[D] Well, there's [Am] nothing alcoholic that [D] makes me [A] feel no pain.
It's the [B] Holy Ghost and fire, [A] the [D]
[E]
devil's cell [A] run dry.
How many of you know what I'm talking about?
[D]
[A] [Em] [A] New Year's Eve, I came skipping home.
I waltzed in through the door.
[Em] [Fm] [Gbm] [A] My brother Jojo, who hardly talks, [E] laying drunk on the [Ab] floor.
[Bbm] [Gb] He said, where have you been that you look so good?
[A] I said, I was in church since 802.
[F] He said, don't give me that.
Even I can tell there's [E] something potent inside of you.
[Eb] [E] Expensive linger?
[Eb] I said no.
That [E] homemade junk?
I [Eb] said no.
[E] [A] How did you get so drunk?
I said, I've been drinking from the well!
[D] The well!
[A]
No, it's not of, it's [Gb] that life-giving, living water [A] that flows from [E] God above.
Well, you [A] can't find on Wall Street this sweet release that's [Am] worth more than all the [D] oil [A] in the Middle East.
Well, [D] there's nothing alcoholic that makes me feel no pain.
[B] It's the Holy Ghost and fire [E] blowing through my veins.

Even [A] if I'm lying down on my back, [Ab] I'll still be [A] drinking.
[Bb] The devil may hate and loathe me, but I'll still be drinking.
Cause [B] my God will always keep His [E] promise.

Yeah!
[Em] [Ab] [Gbm] [N] Never!
Yeah!
