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 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

Well I quit my job,
packed my van
And left with a Dear John
letter in my hand
I chased you across the country
like that’s all I had to do
Well nothing in the world
would have changed my mind
You were the girl with the starry eyes
And all those dreams that never
had a chance of coming true

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 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

Well I drove a long way
to get hung up on
And I talked all day
on the coda phone
Now I’m back out on this highway
tryin’ not to think of you
Well one of these nights
when he says goodbye
 just to see how hard you’ll cry
You’ll be tryin’ not to want me too

Well oh

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 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

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 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
