Song Description
Up-tempo sassy tune that draws from both honky-tonk and bluegrass. Think Wanda Jackson meets Patti Loveless. Take some loving, losing and leaving - then throw in a hefty dose of nursery rhymes and turn them on their sides.

Lyrics
well hey diddle diddle the cat and the fiddle and little Jack Horner too
sat in the corner just a staring at their dinner cause they din?t know what to do
cause I left town without leaving a clue
and that?s what you get when you break this little ole heart in two
Well, old mother Hubbard she a?opened up her cupboard and she thought that she was thru
the shelf was so bare there was nothing in there and she realized the rent was due
so she left town without leaving a clue
and that?s what you?ll get when you break this little old heart in two
guitar break
well old king Cole was a merry ole soul and a merry ole soul was he
but as he stood there crying, I said you might as well quit trying
that?s the last time you?ll mess around with me
so I left town without leaving a clue
and that?s what you get when you break this little ole heart in two
Well miss Mary Mack drove a Cadillac that we knew Peter Piper had just bought her
but it was found broke down over in tinsel town
and the rumours started flying Peter shot her
cause she left town without leaving a clue
and that?s what you get when you break this little ole heart in two
guitar break
Jack and Jill went on up the hill just to fill up their pails full ?o water
but Jill ran so fast; Jack didn?t stand a chance
and we all knew he never could?a caught her
cause she left town without leaving a clue
and that?s what you get when you break this little ole heart in two
yeah that?s what you?ll get when you break this little ole? heart in two
