Heartbreak Avenue - Will Hoge

She was just 16 with a pack of cigarettes and a pawn shop ring

She wanted things to turn out like she’d seen on that silver screen

So she hit the road with her thumb in the air and a ring in her nose

She had a tattoo of a butterfly because that’s the way it goes

When you don’t know just which way the wind will blow

Hey girl where are you going to Say that you’ll be the queen of heartbreak avenue

She met a boy out there with a silver el dorado and jet black hair

He had a tattoo of Elvis so they took their clothes off to compare

And well you know just how far these things can go Then the sun came shining bright and true love in the morning

Never feels like it did last night

He left a letter that said goodbye hold on tight

Now he’s gone so she’ll just move along

So you say you don’t know how your broken

Dreams just drag you down
