Broken Hearted People
Broken-hearted people
Always seem to drink
Tryin' to drown those sorrows
It ain't as easy as you think
Living with a liar
Is a hard old way to go
Laughin' just to keep from crying
Ain't no way to grow old
So take me to a barroom, driver
Set me on a stool
If I can't be her man
I'm damned if I'll be her fool
They say that whiskey ain't the best way
But then I ain't too smart
To think I just found out
She was lyin' from the start
So if this is nothing but a bad joke
Lookin' for a laugh
Well, hold on to your lampshade darlin'
'Cause I'm looking for a hat
And you take me to a barroom, driver
Set me on a stool
If I can't be her man
I'm damned if I'll be her fool
So get this taxi movin'
Because I have got no time to lose
And there's no time to be choosy
You know that any old bar will do
And I'm lookin' to get silly
And I'm lookin' to get loose
And if that don't get it done darlin'
I'll come looking for you
Oh, now take me to a barroom, driver
Set me on a stool
If I can't be her man
I'm damned if I'll be her fool
Take me to a barroom, driver
Set me on a stool
If I can't be her man
I'm damned if I'll be her fool
Always seem to drink
Tryin' to drown those sorrows
It ain't as easy as you think
Living with a liar
Is a hard old way to go
Laughin' just to keep from crying
Ain't no way to grow old
So take me to a barroom, driver
Set me on a stool
If I can't be her man
I'm damned if I'll be her fool
They say that whiskey ain't the best way
But then I ain't too smart
To think I just found out
She was lyin' from the start
So if this is nothing but a bad joke
Lookin' for a laugh
Well, hold on to your lampshade darlin'
'Cause I'm looking for a hat
And you take me to a barroom, driver
Set me on a stool
If I can't be her man
I'm damned if I'll be her fool
So get this taxi movin'
Because I have got no time to lose
And there's no time to be choosy
You know that any old bar will do
And I'm lookin' to get silly
And I'm lookin' to get loose
And if that don't get it done darlin'
I'll come looking for you
Oh, now take me to a barroom, driver
Set me on a stool
If I can't be her man
I'm damned if I'll be her fool
Take me to a barroom, driver
Set me on a stool
If I can't be her man
I'm damned if I'll be her fool
