“All the King’s Horses”

Lyrics Permalink
All the king’s horses and all the king’s men
They couldn’t put my broken heart back together again
I woke up this morning
And this is what I found
You had gone and left me
And you never even made a farewell sound
Now, all the king’s horses and all the king’s men
(All the king’s horses and all the king’s men)
They couldn’t put my broken heart back together again
(Couldn’t put my broken heart back together again)
I asked your friends about you
And this is what they said
“She can live without you
She’s gonna find a man with money instead”
Now, all the king’s horses and all the king’s men
(All the king’s horses and all the king’s men)
They couldn’t put my broken heart back together again
(Couldn’t put my broken heart back together again)
Someday you will know
The meaning of a love that’s true
But when you find out
I won’t be around to share with you
Now, all the king’s horses and all the king’s men (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
They couldn’t put my broken heart back together again (No, no, no)
Now, all the king’s horses and all the king’s men (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
They couldn’t put my broken heart back together again
