Sitting in a road side tavern
The only girl seated here alone
Every night some lonely cowboy
Wants to tell me all about his broken hope
It's like they can see inside my mind
They act as though they know I'll understand
I guess they can see it in my eyes
And feel it when they touch my trembling hand
But if anyone ought to know
About loneliness and broken hopes
It ought to be me
That's the reason I'm all alone
If anyone ought to know
About things like hurt and misery
If anyone ought to know
Lord in Heaven knows it ought to be me
If anyone ought to know
About loneliness and broken hopes
It ought to be me
That's the reason I'm alone
If anyone ought to know
About things like hurt and misery
If anyone ought to know
Lord in Heaven knows it ought to be me
