My daddy's knuckles were always bloody From workin on our hand me down cars He'd tell me son the only way to get ahead Is work your fingers to the bone Gave him the finger and I walked away I wouldn't listen to a thing he'd say And now that he's not here, I want him to know I knew he worked his fingers to the bone My momma always knew of my indiscretions But she always had an ear for me She'd take me to the church and make me listen Pray to God on a bended knee I said I hate you and I walked away I wouldn't listen to a thing she'd say One day I turned around and she was gone I knew she worked her fingers to the bone Last night I read my son a bedtime story And he looked up at me He told me daddy you know I love you Daddy please don't leave But there will come a day he''ll walk away SongtexteAnd he won't listen to a word I say Then one day he'll wake up, and he'll know His daddy worked his fingers to the bone His daddy worked his fingers to the bone His momma worked her fingers to the bone All we tried to do is give you a home Yeah nobody tried to steer you wrong Cause everybody works their fingers to the bone Aus Songtexte Mania
