Lyrics
Heartbreak Station
Growin? up ain?t what it used to be,
Life keeps changin? for you and me.
Every promise can be a golden chain,
Every ray of sun can be a drop of rain.
Runnin? blind down a darkened road,
I need salvation but I keep lookin? for gold;
So I?ll follow the tracks of a wayward train and ease my pain
At Heartbreak Station.
Everything I learned in school
The pledge of allegiance, the golden rule;
Now left on the wayside, bottom of the hill,
If the taxman don?t catch me then karma will.
Chorus
Wish I had a million dollars,
I?d go down to the bars, I?d hoot and holler.
Buy me a drink for every woman and man,
And dance ?til I drop to a rock and roll band.
