I Was Born with a Broken Heart

If you're lost and you're alone

Let me sing you a song

Oh, you're not the only lonely one tonight

I know what you're goin' through

I can sympathize with you

I've been wakin' in your shoes all my life

I was born with a broken heart

Born to lose right from the start

Raised on hand-me-down blues

That's why I sing the way I do

A sad six-string and a jukebox voice

I'm the lonely people's choice

I was made to play the part

I was born with a broken heart

If the sun could ever shine

In your life, well friend, that's fine

And may you leave behind these

Old troubled times that we've shared

Oh, but don't look back for me

'Cause I'm where I'm supposed to be

And anywhere there's a lonely street

I'll be there

I was born with a broken heart

Born to lose right from the start

Raised on hand-me-down blues

That's why I sing the way I do

A sad six-string and a jukebox voice

I'm the lonely people's choice

I was made to play the part

I was born with a broken heart

Yes, I was made to play the part

I was born with a broken heart
