Born with a Broken Heart (2:05)

 

Maybe I’ve been crying    (Slow, deep, meaningful)

Since we’ve been apart

Baby please don’t blame yourself

‘Cause I was born with a broken heart

 

When I was a newborn      (Quick country rhythm)

They couldn’t stop my crying.

Took me to the doctor

For fear that I was dying.

Doctor he examined me

Checked out every part.

Says this boy is healthy,

Just born with a broken heart.

 

I was b…..o…..r..…n…….

with a broken heart

L…o…n…e…ly

from the start.

Maybe I’ve been crying

Since we’ve been apart

Wasn’t you who hurt me

I was born with a broken heart

 

Doctor said that science

Couldn’t ease my pain.

Ailment of the spirit.

Obsession of the brain.

Say a little prayer.

To the Lord above

Pray for a healthy heifer

Who’ll give me lots of love.

 

Cause I was Born with a broken heart………Chorus

 

You were my best medicine

But baby now we’re through

All the pain is back

Just one thing left to do

Find another girl

Who wants to play the part

Give me lots of loving

To medicate this heart

 

Cause I was born with a broken heart

Lonely from the start

Maybe I’ve been crying

Since we’ve been apart

Wasn’t you who hurt me

I was born with a broken Heart

Baby please don’t blame yourself

Born with a broken heart

Just ask the family doctor

I  was   Born    with    a    Bro  ken     Heart
