Baby when your heart breaks down When you're low on lovin' and there isn't anybody around Well you're gonna feel bad and you'll want to get back The only good thing that you ever had Honey when he turns you loose And you keep on tryin' to forget him but it ain't no use Well then you're gonna know what I'm feeling now Baby when your heart breaks down
I left Appaloosa and my homemade wine I give up a job on a gas pipeline I chased you across the country like that's all I had to do There was nothing in the world would've changed my mind You were the girl with the starry eyes And all them dreams that never had a chance of coming true
Baby when your heart breaks down... [ fiddle ] Well I packed my bags bought a guitar I caught me a ride on an old grain barge I'm floatin' down this river tryin' not to think of you Now one of these days when it says goodbye Just to see how hard you'll cry you'll be tryin' not to want me too
Baby when your heart breaks down... Baby when your heart breaks down... Baby when your heart breaks down... Baby when your heart breaks down...
