Boney Fingers Lyrics - 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 

Yeah 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 

Yeah 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
