My heart's too broke to pay attention
If love was a penny I couldn't afford to fall
Every girl in the world tonight have sweet intentions
My heart's too broke to pay attention

I was heart broke and feelin' down Billy Joe said let's go to town
He said an ounce of cure is worth a pound of prevention
He said I know a little watering hole
Where the band is hot and the beer is cold
There's more women there than at a Tupperware convention

My heart's too broke to pay attention

[ guitar - steel ]

I ain't ready for another love Billy Joe's tryin' to fix me up
He's a friend to the end he's a man on a mission
He just punched me in the side said did you see what just walked by
She had a million dollar smile and a body in mint condition

My heart's too broke to pay attention
