Well I put on my overcoat and shined my walkin` shoes
I`ve got the sense to get out of the rain
You`ve got the best of me and I know I can`t win
Well I`ve come to recognize that old familiar pain
Chorus
Well I`ve been too long on a heartbreak highway
On the wings of love there`s a heavy load
But if it can`t fly I`ll take the train dear
I`ve done enough cryin` on the shoulder
Of a heartbreak highway
You`ve thrown away the king of hearts leavin` you the queen
If you play other hearts there in your hand
I won`t be the victim of this catch me if you can
It`s hard to keep on dancin` girl if you can`t hear the band
Chorus repeats twice
Of a heartbreak highway
