Broken Hearted People lyrics

[Verse]
Now broken-hearted people always seem to drink
Tryin' to drown those sorrows ain't as easy as you think
But living with a liar, it's a hard old way to go
Laughin' just to keep from crying ain't no way to grow old

[Chorus]
So take me to a barroom, driver, set me on a stool
If I can't be her man, I'm damned if I'll be her fool

[Verse]
They say that whiskey ain't the best way, but then I ain't too smart
To think I just found out she was lying from the start
If this is nothing but a bad joke lookin' for a laugh
Hold on to your lampshade, darlin', 'cause I'm looking for a hat

[Chorus]
So take me to a barroom, driver, set me on a stool
If I can't be her man, I'm damned if I'll be her fool

[Verse]
So get this taxi movin' 'cause I have got no time to lose
There's no time to be choosy, you know any old bar will do
'Cause I'm lookin' to get silly and I'm lookin' to get loose
And if that don't get it done, my darlin', I'll come looking for you
[Chorus]
So take me to a barroom, driver, set me on a stool
If I can't be her man, I'm damned if I'll be her fool

[Chorus]
Take me to a barroom, driver, set me on a stool
If I can't be her man, I'm damned if I'll be her fool
