Fingernails Lyrics


I keep my fingernails long
So they click when I play the piano
I keep my fingernails long
So they click when I play the pianoI'm gonna keep 'em that way
Till the swallows get back from TexarkanaI keep my fingernails long
So they click when I play the piano
I keep my fingernails long
So they click when I play the pianoI'm gonna keep 'em that way
Till the swallows get back from LouisianaWell, I used to chew 'em off
I was nervous over you
I missed that clickin', tickin' sound
Honey, what I'm gonna doI keep my fingernails long
So they click when I play the piano
I keep my fingernails long
So they click when I play the pianoI'm gonna keep 'em that way
Till the swallows get back from AlabamaWell, I used to chew 'em off
I was nervous over you
I missed that clickin', tickin' sound

Honey, what I'm gonna doI keep my fingernails long
So they click when I play the piano
I keep my fingernails long
So they click when I play the pianoI'm gonna keep 'em that way
Till the swallows get back

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
