Hugged your friends
Kissed your mamma 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

and 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
town
