Buddy you might think that I've lost my mind
But mister I'd pay twice to do it one more time
It cost a thousand tears and wore out my knees
But buddy that's okay the heartaches are free
You probably thought I'd used up every brain I had
But mister once you've tried you'll swear that it ain't bad
It cost a thousand tears and wear out your knees
But buddy that's okay the heartaches are free
Hey man if she takes a notion to sell you a hit of potion waste no time
And boss if you need a reason to pay for all her teasin' well just take mine
It cost a thousand tears and wore out my knees
But buddy that's okay the heartaches are free
[ fiddle + steel ]
Hey man if she takes a notion...
Yeah I can guarantee the heartaches are free
