EVER-LOVIN' FINGERS
by Jimmy Bowen

I thought I had me a woman, a woman that would be true.
I thought that after I married, her love would always be true;
But the first thing I knew, when my back was turned,
Got my ever-lovin' fingers burned.

Well, I came home one evening from work.
I'm just a lowly grocery clerk.
My woman thinks that I should be more.
Thinks I should own that whole darn store.

Don't trust a yellow-haired woman; don't trust her if her hair is brown.
Don't trust any kind of woman; she'll always let you down.
And the first thing you knew, when your back is turned,
Get your ever-loving fingers burned.
