Heartbreak King
Lyrics
The whole bar starts talking when I walk in
They all know my name but I don't know them
I guess lonely ain't too hard to see
That's why they call me the heartbreak king
I'm the guy that the girl left
Hopin' that she'll come back, knowin' she never will
When they see me comin', they keep 'em comin'
'Cause they've all felt how I feel
Pour another Crown for the heartbreak king
No, I don't know them but they know me
All hail the heartbreak king
Every time that old jukebox kicks on
It's a steel guitar and a hurtin' song
Like an old familiar melody
They turn it on up for the heartbreak king
I'm the guy that the girl left
Hopin' that she'll come back, knowin' she never will
When they see me comin', they keep 'em comin'
'Cause they've all felt how I feel
Pour another Crown for the heartbreak king
No, I don't know them but they know me
All hail the heartbreak king
I'm a glass half empty with my hat down low
Sittin' up high on my bar stool throne
I'm the guy that the girl left
Hopin' that she'll come back, knowin' she never will
When they see me comin', they keep 'em comin'
'Cause they've all felt how I feel
Pour another double Crown for the heartbreak king
No, I don't know them but they know me
All hail the heartbreak king
The whole bar starts talkin' when I walk in
They all know my name but I don't know them
