Lyrics
Broken Down Ol' Heart
©Cathleen Weinrich and Robert Heath 1995
verse
I have had my share...of
Head on collisions where
Young hearts tear...
Down lovers lane
To know that I'm just one
Crash test dummy on
His way to run...
Into love again
chorus
Don't know what I'm gonna do
All I got to offer you
Is a little seat for two
In this broken down ole heart
Skips a little when it starts
Really only good for parts
Just a brokin' down ole heart
Just a brokin' down ole heart
verse
I ain't holdin' out
Or feelin' any doubt
About you and me
Just want you to know
This heart'll love you so
Even though
Its past its warrantee
Though I love you so
I wanna take it slow
'Cause love has no guarantee
repeat chorus
bridge
It'll shimmy and shake
When you"re making a pass
But it ain't hard to break
When you step off the gas
repeat chorus
