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
I'm gonna roll on down the line I'm gonna go so far I'm gonna get it off mt mind 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
