Story Behind The Song

A broken heart sends a man drowning his sorrows. The Broken Inn is a play on words as the name of the bar and the circumstance he's in....

Song Description

A Wife's heartbreak sends her husband to the bar looking for consoling. Drowning his sorrows to the bartender.

Lyrics

I've been staying out

Partying and stompin all over town

If anybody wants to know where I've been,

I've been down at the Broken Inn



She broke my heart, I broke my fist on the wall, broke our wedding picture throwing it down the hall,

her sweet lovin's what started it all, down at the Broken Inn.



I'll be out tonight

Drowning my sorrows til the morning light

Trying to make myself alright

Down at the Broken Inn



Chorus:

Down at the Broken Inn

Drinking by myself with all my friends

My love used to make her smile

Till it started crampin' down her style

And I'm gonna be here for a while



Yeah, c'mon



Instrumental....



I'm gettin' down my own routine, of bouncin' all around the bar room scene. And all my barkeeps know what I mean, down at the Broken Inn.

They pour me bourbon, pour me scotch on the rocks, they listen to my stories and feel the pain I've got. They're healin' heartaches when the liquor's not, Down at the Broken Inn.



I'll be out tonight

Oh, Drowning my sorrows til the morning light

Trying to make myself alright

Down at the Broken Inn



Chorus:

Down at the Broken Inn

Drinking by myself with all my friends

My love used to make her smile

Till it started crampin down her style

And I'm gonna be here for a while



Chorus:

Down at the Broken Inn

Drinking by myself with all my friends

My love used to make her smile

Till it started crampin' down her style.

And I'm gonna be here for a while



I'm gonna be here for a while



Yeah, Down at the Broken Inn

I'll be at the Broken Inn

I'll be down at the Broken Inn
