"Wishbone" lyrics

Ain't no more pennies
To throw to my well
Since she left me
It's been a dry spell

Oh, but these eyes of mine they're still wet
They're the only thing that's not stopped watering yet

And no four leaf clover
On God's green Earth
Helped me get over
The luck I lost with her

Oh, what am I to do all the good fortunes gone
She was that clover all along

You thought I struck gold
How a loving hand means you're in a choke hold
I've tried and tried to win that gold back
But all I got to show is some coal in a sack

No rabbit's foot would do me good
I've dug too deep of a hole
She was the bigger piece
My wishbone

Old straw hat
Sits flat on my bed
No I ain't worry
Just rain on like that

Oh, if she come back maybe just one more time
I wouldn't be fearing for my whole life

You thought I struck gold
How a loving hand means you're in a choke hold
I've tried and tried to win that gold back
But all I got to show is some coal in a sack

No rabbit's foot would do me good
I've dug too deep of a hole
She was the bigger piece
She was that bigger piece
She was the bigger piece
My wishbone
