Heartbreak Express Lyrics - The Essential Dolly Parton, Vol. 1 - Dolly Parton

Packin' my suitcase writin' a tear stained good-bye note 

Sayin' so long to a love gone wrong and that's all she wrote 

Leavin' behind what once was mine with sad regrets 

But it's all gone now and I'm leavin' town on the Heartbreak Express 

Walkin in the rain with a heart full of pain to the train depot 

The only things that's gonna keep me warm now is my overcoat 

Lost and lonely waitin in line at the ticket desk 

Hey mister won't you give me a one-way ticket on the Heartbreak Express 

I'm gonna roll on down the line 

I'm gonna go so far I'm gonna get it off my mind 

It hurts to know it ain't enough when you give your best 

Got a ticket to ride and I'm leavin tonight on the Heartbreak Express 

Oh I couldn't hold a candle to a flaming beauty that caught his eye 

It's killin' me now but I won't stay around and let him watch me die 

Oh it just goes to show you never do know 'cause I never would'a guessed 

I'd be sittin' here now on a train sorrow bound called the Heartbreak Express

Maybe someday somewhere someway I will forget 

But there's no goin' back so roll down the track you ole Heartbreak Express 

Feelin' alone while a low whistle moans 

On the Heartbreak Express
