Lyrics
[Verse 1]
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
[Chorus]
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
[Instrumental]
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
[Chorus]
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
[Instrumental]
I'm a glass half empty with my hat down low
Sittin' up high on my bar stool throne
[Chorus]
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
[Instrumental]
The whole bar starts talkin' when I walk in
They all know my name, but I don't know them
