I'm goin' fishin' in the wishin' 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 nothin' special to do
I'm goin' fishin' in the wishin' 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 goin' fishin' in the wishin' well
'Cause when I looked 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
And wished to myself that when I saw you again
My heart would be a little bit bolder
I'm goin' fishin' in the wishin' well
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 goin' fishin' in the wishin' well
I'm goin' fishin' in the wishin' well
I'm goin' fishin' in the wishin' well
