My Stinking Old Heart

(from the CD Stark Raving Songs)

I hope you're unhappy wherever you are
I hope you're singing the blues
I hope you've pimples all over your face
And holes in the soles of your shoes
I hope you keep going and never come back
Or get run off the road in the dark
'Cause when I woke up with my pick-up truck gone
You broke my stinking old heart.

My stinking old heart will never recover
My stinking old heart just wants to get drunk
My stinking old heart will cry out forever
My stinking old heart is finally sunk.

You scratched all my Patsy Cline albums on purpose
You took all the cash from the bank
You went and you maxed out the plastic
You emptied the whole biscuit can
You stole my best boots and my favorite bandana
And my daddy's collection of rodeo art
But when I woke up with my pick-up truck gone
You broke my stinking old heart.

You schemed in the night with the neighbors
You griped and you gossiped all day
You phoned up the nurse in the nuthouse
You tried to have me locked away
You turned my own ranch hands against me
You tore my defenses apart
But when I woke up with my pick-up truck gone
You broke my stinking old heart.

I hope that you drive 'til your arse falls off
I hope you forget how to smile
I hope that no matter how far you may travel
You still have to go one more mile
And I hope if you ever do get to the end
You find yourself back at the start
'Cause when I woke up with my pick-up truck gone
You broke my stinking old heart.
