Guy Clark - Hell Bent on a Heartache Lyrics

Ain't love funny? Ain't love strange?
I say love is a dangerous game
Shows no mercy it has no rules
It's all the same for the kings and fools

And I'm hell bent on a heartache
I should know better, but I guess I don't
I keep on learning the hard way
Every time I turn around
I make the same mistake
'Cause I'm hell bent on a heartache
Hell bent on a heartache

Seems I'm always getting burned
Just you wait until the table is turned
Love's a gamble, love's a curse
Love's a bitch, but it could be worse

And I'm hell bent on a heartache
I should know better, but I guess I don't
I keep on learning the hard way
Every time I turn around
I make the same mistake
Yes, I'm hell bent on a heartache
Hell bent on a heartache

Don't get me wrong i believe in love
Sometimes that's just not enough

'Cause I'm hell bent on a heartache
I should know better, but I guess I don't
I keep on learning the hard way
Every time I turn around
I make the same mistake
Oh, I'm hell bent on a heartache
Hell bent on a heartache
