[00:02.70]Broke my heart to leave the city
[00:08.04]I mean it broke what wasn't broken in there already
[00:17.22]Thought of all my great reasons for leaving
[00:22.23]Now I can't think of any
[00:24.60]It's true it was a hard time that I've come through
[00:36.12]It's made me thankful for the blues
[00:44.79]Half my life spent on a highway
[00:53.13]Half my life I didn't choose
[01:01.92]And I have seen the North Star
[01:05.49]Shining in the freight yard
[01:10.89]And I knew it was a hard time that it'd come through
[01:13.95]It's made him thankful for the blues
[01:39.15]It broke my heart to know you waited
[01:41.28]I had so many things to do
[01:45.36]It's true as far as a lot of stuff
[01:49.71]You could have had a little better luck
[01:52.38]You just called and just hung it up
[01:56.97]One of us has had enough
[02:11.97]It's true as far as a lot of stuff
[02:16.71]You could have had a little better luck
[02:18.09]You just called and just hung it up
[02:23.01]Baby both of us have had enough

Broke my heart to leave the city
I mean it broke what wasn't broken in there already
Thought of all my great reasons for leaving
Now I can't think of any
It's true it was a hard time that I've come through
It's made me thankful for the blues
Half my life spent on a highway
Half my life I didn't choose
And I have seen the North Star
Shining in the freight yard
And I knew it was a hard time that it'd come through
It's made him thankful for the blues
It broke my heart to know you waited
I had so many things to do
It's true as far as a lot of stuff
You could have had a little better luck
You just called and just hung it up
One of us has had enough
It's true as far as a lot of stuff
You could have had a little better luck
You just called and just hung it up
Baby both of us have had enough
