Town That Broke My Heart - Bobby Bare Lyrics

Town That Broke My Heart

Mister I want a room at the top of your hotel
I want to say goodbye to the town I know so well
I want to ride that elevator to the top
I want to say goodbye to the town that broke my heart

I came here to make it big I made my girl a vow
I really made it big alright I'm a big ole loser now
My kite just never caught the wind my fire was just a spark
She left me here in the town that broke my heart
So I went to take just one more look
At the town that broke my heart

Now that she's gone I'll be leaving too
And I don't know where to start

Yeah these old streets I brought my dreams
And watch them fall apart
I lost it all in the town that broke my heart
