Hugged your friends

Kissed your mama goodbye

Baby in your arms and a tear in your eye

Twelve hundred miles and you never asked why

From me



Me and the baby and you side by side

We all knew we was in for a long hard ride

Nowhere to run and nowhere to hide

It seemed



We honked the horn when we crossed the state line

Woke up the baby and she started to cry

She must've known

What we were going to find



This ain't nothin' but a Heartbreak Town

Square people in a world that's round

And they watch you dancin'

Without the sound

It ain't nothin' no nothin'

You take your number and you stand in line

And they watch to see how high you're gonna climb

Pat on the back 'n better luck next time

It ain't nothin'

No it ain't nothin' but a Heartbreak Town



Stardust well it's a funny thing

It can make you cuss

It can make you sing

And the need to touch it gets hard to explain

Some days



I've seen 'em rise

I've seen 'em fall

Some get nothin'

And Lord some get it all

Some just run while others crawl away

Hold my hand baby don't let go

I've got some front money

And I've got a next show

And I'm gonna need you down this yellow brick road



This ain't nothin' but a Heartbreak Town

Square people in a world that's round

And they watch you dancin'

Without the sound

It ain't nothin' no nothin'

You take your number and you stand in line

And they watch to see how high you're gonna climb

Pat on the back 'n better luck next time

It ain't nothin'

No it ain't nothin' but a Heartbreak Town
