Jimmy was a bareback rider back in my hometown
Cowboys fall hard and the whole town saw Katie let him down
I saw him just the other day,
fifteen years since I've been gone
I couldn't believe it when I heard him say,
I don't think she's coming home
Now that was a heartache,
no little mistake A pain down in your bones,
too much to take
Well time keeps a-rollin' but you ain't movin' on
You and I had a pretty good time,
and I'll cry when you're gone
But that was a heartache
Twenty years old, runnin' wild,
moved out on my own
I believed every promise that fell from
the lips that said you'll never be alone
Oh,
but the heart was young and tender How
could I realize in the middle of the night
I still remember
that last look in his eyes Now that was a heartache,
no little mistake
A pain down in your bones,
too much to take
Well
time keeps a-rollin' but you ain't movin' on
You and I had a pretty good time,
and I'll cry when you're gone
But that was a heartache
So it don't mean nothin' if I call you
up And it don't mean this was really love
Now that was a heartache,
no little mistake
A pain down in your bones,
too much to take
Well time keeps a-rollin' but you ain't movin' on
You and I had a pretty good time,
and I'll cry when you're gone
But that was a heartache That was a heartache
