My heart’s too broke to pay attention
If love was a penny I couldn't afford to fall
Every girl in the world tonight
could have sweet intentions
My heart’s too broke to pay attention
I was heart broke and feelin’ down
Billy Joe said Let’s go to town
He said an ounce of cure
Is worth a pound of prevention
He said I know a little waterin’ hole
Where the band is hot and the beer is hot
There’s more woman there
Than at a Tupperware convention
My heart’s too broke to pay attention
If love was a penny I couldn't afford to fall
Every girl in the world tonight
could have sweet intentions
My heart’s too broke to pay attention
I ain't ready for another love
Billy Joe’s trying to fix me up
He’s a friend to the end
He’s a man on a mission
He just punched me in the side
Said Did you see what just walked by
She had a million dollar smile
And a body in mint condition
