Knucklebones

Unfold your last dollar
Ain't thick enough to keep you warm
Unfold that last dollar
Ain't thick enough to keep you warm
Then whisper to the knucklebones
Sway the lady with your charms

She loves to smooch and nuzzle
Sometimes she'll flirt with you
She enjoys the slap n' tickle
Some nights she'll dance with you
But that other guy's looking handsome
And she's trying something new

You can ask her twenty questions
What she wants she'll never tell
Go and ask a million questions
What she wants she'll never tell
You'll never find her desire
Till you see how those knucklebones fell

So listen to the knucklebones
No promises, no lies
Yes, listen to those knucklebones
No promises, no lies
They just rattle out the numbers
Don't care who laughs or cries

They just rattle out the numbers
Don't care who lives or dies
