I just spent my last nickel trying to drive my tears away
Trying to mend a broken heart that you once led astray
I know that life is funny, this whole world is built that way
So many disappointments, that's what makes the jukebox play
Every time I see a new love, I bow my head and pray
They'll always be there for me
We always talk things over, understand each other's ways
But sometimes it doesn't happen, it's a fool like me who pays
To be alone in this old world, that's what makes the jukebox play
Some people seem so happy, they're always laughing and gay
Love to them is just a word, tomorrow's another day
My life would be so empty, for my heart won't live
That way
All kinds of people make this world, that's what makes the jukebox play
