she had to cut her fingernails
just to learn how to play the guitar
how many women do you know
that would go that far
i know just one and she suits me so fine
she sends me texts all the time
manicured and kept real nice
she didn't take my advice
i said honey they look so good
how 'bout a new shade of opossum wood
she cut 'em anyway
no matter what i say
she's got her mind set on playin' today
she had to cut her fingernails
just to learn how to play the guitar
how many women do you know
that would go that far
*banjo/juice harp solo... hell yeah*
she used to dig 'em in my back
she had to cut her fingernails
just to learn how to play the guitar
how many women do you know
that would go that far
i want the chance to tell her
she's a regular james taylor
but she can't even hear me
'cause she's strummin' that 6-string again
see you long luscious fingernails
no more shades of red runnin' through my hair
i guess i'll have to get me another guitar
i guess i'm glad she took it this far
