The Same Old Hurt Lyrics - Burl Ives

Got a new house with new lumber 

Even got a new phone number 

Did it all since we broke apart 

Got acquainted with new faces 

Started going to new places 

But I've got that same old hurt in my heart 

Got a new suit for next Sunday 

Got a new job starting Monday 

Got everybody thinking I'm half smart 

Got a new vocabulary 

Even got a new canary 

But I've got that same old hurt in my heart 

No matter what I change 

Same old hurt stays the same 

Always there reminding me that we're apart 

Got a new wallet full of money 

Got a new girl that calls me 'Honey' 

But I've got that same old hurt in my heart 

No matter what I change 

Same old hurt, it stays the same 

It's always there reminding me that we're apart 

Got a new wallet full of money 

Got a new girl that calls me 'Honey' 

But I've got that same old hurt in my heart 

Got that same old hurt in my heart
