HEART BREAKING BABY
by Jim Reeves
(Recorded c. late 1952)


Heart breakin' baby, what makes you want to roam?
Heart breakin' baby, why don't you come on home?
You said you'd like to see the lights
But you've been gone forty days and nights
Heart breakin' baby, why don't you come on home?

Heart breakin' baby, take off those walkin' shoes
Come on back baby and read the hometown news
It says "hometown girl makes good"
Somehow I always knew you would
Heart breakin' baby, be careful what you do

Heart breakin' baby, why don't you settle down?
Heart breakin' baby, quit all that runnin' around
I see you bought a brand new car
I'm glad you didn't stray too far
Heart breakin' baby, I'm on my way.
