Heartbreak Tennessee

There are things to do in Knoxville

There are things to do in Nashville

And Rock City is a place you oughta see

But if you want to visit my town

You won’t find it on the road map

And I can’t say much for Heartbreak Tennessee

I live in a house with wall to wall sorrow

On the corner of pain and misery

I’m the judge and the mayor and the chief of police

In the town of Heartbreak Tennessee

And if you ever visit Nashville

You shouldn’t miss the Grand Ole Opry

But if you like weird sensations

Like crying for recreation

Then you’ll have a ball in Heartbreak Tennessee

Now I’ve got some buddies Joe Pain and Sam Teardrop

They’re all I’ve got to keep me company

Smallest city in the nation we’re the entire population

In the town of Heartbreak Tennessee
