Fingernails - Joe Ely

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 piano

I’m gonna keep 'em that way

Till the Swallows get back from Texarkana

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 piano

I’m gonna keep 'em that way

Till the Swallows get back from Louisiana

Well, I used to chew 'em off

I was Nervous over you

I missed that clickin', tickin' sound

Honey, what I’m gonna do

Is keep my fingernails long

So they Click when I play the piano

I keep my fingernails long

So they Click when I play the piano

I’m gonna keep 'em that way

Till the Swallows get back from Alabama
