If I was a gamblin' man
Never would've let you play your hand
With a broken down cowboy like me
'Cause you never can trust your luck
He's bad news in a pick-up truck
That broken down cowboy like me
He's played every card he?s got
Had a good hand but he messed it up
With that b** around tumble down heart
Saddle bags full of pain
Carries 'em around just like a middle name
A losin' streak waitin' for dark
Oh, he'll string you along
Sing you a lonesome song
But he'll wind up alone again
No matter how hard you try
Never gonna let you get inside
That tumble down broken down heart
It's a tough riding rodeo
Mean horse threw him long time ago
A broken down cowboy like me
But the way I feel about you
Wouldn't want that horse to hurt you too
A broken down cowboy like me
Oh, he'll string you along
Sing you a lonesome song
But he'll wind up alone again
If I was a gamblin' man
Never would've let you play that hand
With a broken down cowboy like me
Never would've let you play your hand
With a broken down cowboy like me
'Cause you never can trust your luck
He's bad news in a pick-up truck
That broken down cowboy like me
He's played every card he?s got
Had a good hand but he messed it up
With that b** around tumble down heart
Saddle bags full of pain
Carries 'em around just like a middle name
A losin' streak waitin' for dark
Oh, he'll string you along
Sing you a lonesome song
But he'll wind up alone again
No matter how hard you try

That tumble down broken down heart
It's a tough riding rodeo
