Fingers To The Bone Lyrics

Send "Fingers To The Bone" Ringtone to your Cell

Everything went wrong
I'm sorry boys, i've got to let you go
We've had some hard times
And the long rain, it didn't show
Hired hands, i've seen them come and go
But you don't come much better
Today's blue monday
I just got a bad news letter

This day has come
The darkest cloud on our horizon
My hands are tied down
To that promise note i signed upon
Always been this way
It's the poor man who gets hurt
All you ever work for
Is to leave your footprints in the dirt

You work your fingers to the bone

The deed is done
The fruit will fall to someone else's hand
That's how the land lies
Now we all know where we stand
You'll have to walk away
Don't let them see you running
Today's blue monday
I should have seen it coming

You work your fingers to the bone

If sweat and tears were all it took
To make this valley green
We'd be alright but now it's gone
They've taken everything
They say it's just an act of god
And that's the way ill wind blows
You've got thirty days to pack your bags
Say goodbye, hit the road

You work your fingers to the bone

Send "Fingers To The Bone" Ringtone to your Cell

Everything went wrong  
I'm sorry boys, i've got to let you go  
We've had some hard times  
And the long rain, it didn't show  
Hired hands, i've seen them come and go  
But you don't come much better  
Today's blue monday  
I just got a bad news letter  
  
This day has come  
The darkest cloud on our horizon  
My hands are tied down  
To that promise note i signed upon  
Always been this way  
It's the poor man who gets hurt  
All you ever work for  
Is to leave your footprints in the dirt  
  
You work your fingers to the bone  
  
The deed is done  
The fruit will fall to someone else's hand  
That's how the land lies  
Now we all know where we stand  
You'll have to walk away  
Don't let them see you running  
Today's blue monday  
I should have seen it coming  
  
You work your fingers to the bone  
  
If sweat and tears were all it took  
To make this valley green  
We'd be alright but now it's gone  
They've taken everything  
They say it's just an act of god  
And that's the way ill wind blows  
You've got thirty days to pack your bags  
Say goodbye, hit the road  
  
You work your fingers to the bone
