Boney Fingers - Hoyt Axton

See the rain comin' down and the roof won’t hold 'er

Lost my job and I feel a little older

Car won’t run and our love’s grown colder

But maybe things’ll get a little better, in the mornin'

Maybe things’ll get a little better

Oh!

the clothes need washin' and the fire won’t start

Kids all cryin' and you’re breakin' my heart

Whole darn place is fallin' apart

Maybe things’ll get a little better, in the mornin'

Maybe things’ll get a little better

Work your fingers to the bone — whadda ya get?

(Whoo-whoo) Boney Fingers — Boney Fing-gers

Yea!

I’ve been broke as long as I remember

Get a little money and I gotta run and spend 'er

When I try to save it, pretty woman come and take it

Sayin' maybe things’ll get a little better, in the mornin'

Maybe things’ll get a little better

Work your fingers to the bone — whadda ya get?

(Whoo-whoo) Boney Fingers — Boney Fing-gers

Yea!

the grass won’t grow and the sun’s too hot

The whole darn world is goin' to pot

Might as well like it 'cause you’re all that I’ve got

But, maybe things’ll get a little better, in the mornin'

Maybe things’ll get a little better

Work your fingers to the bone — whadda ya get?

(Whoo-whoo) Boney Fingers — Boney Fing-gers
