If this ole heart was built like a truck |
|
These rocky old roads wouldn't be so rough |
|
And if it ever broke down |
|
I could patch it up |
|
If this ole heart was built like a truck |
|
If this ole heart was made like a train |
|
A lot of smoke and steel, |
|
I wouldn't feel no pain |
|
And it wouldn't look back as it rolled away |
|
If this ole heart was made like a train |
|
But this ole heart is flesh and blood |
|
Gets into trouble when it cares too much |
|
Keeps it hangin' on when it ought to give up |
|
On somethin' that's passed |
|
I wish it had wheels and |
|
I wish it had wings' |
|
Cause I could sure use just one of those things |
|
Then this danged old fallin' out of love wouldn't hurt so bad |
|
But this ole heart ain't made like that |
|
If this ole heart was like an old tin roof |
|
Beaten by the rain, weathered and used |
|
A fresh coat of paint would make it good as new |
|
If this ole heart was like an old tin roof |
|
But this ole heart is flesh and blood |
|
Gets in trouble when it cares too much |
|
Keeps it hangin' on when it ought to give up |
|
On somethin that's passed |
|
I wish it had wheels and |
|
I wish it had wings' |
|
Cause I could sure use just one of those things |
|
Then this danged old fallin' out of love wouldn't hurt so bad |
|
But this ole heart ain't made like that |
|
Oh this ole heart ain't made like that |
