Heartbreak Game lyrics
Song information
Artist: Tim O'brien Album: Oh Boy! O'boy!
Lyrics
It's not as if I didn't know better, her innocent look and a scented letter It looked like love but it felt like a memory Sometimes a young girl wants a ticket out And a gambler on a roll looks good no doubt But if you think you're winnin' you don't even know the game you're in
Chorus: It's read ?em and weep, it's a sad old song You take your chances just the same Don't it serve me right how it all went wrong Bettin' on a hard luck heart in a heartbreak game Bettin' on a hard luck heart in a heartbreak game
It's not as if she never loved me, but times get rough and the rooms get lonely And a girl learns fast that there's a lot of different things called love I got burned bad but I'm still in this game It's a dirty deal but nobody's to blame The odds are good lady luck will be back again
Chorus
Bridge: Sometimes you gotta bet your aces low Sometimes you gotta let a good hand go
Chorus 2x
Bettin' on a hard luck heart in a heartbreak game
