Heartbreak Avenue

She was just 16

with a pack of cigarettes and a pawn shop ring

She wanted things to turn out like she'd seen right there

On that silver screen

So she hit the road

with her thumb in the air and the ring in her nose

she had a tatoo of a butterfly

Because that's the way it goes

When you don't know which way the wind will blow



[CHORUS]

Hey girl

Where are you going to

Say that you'll be the queen

of Heartbreak Avenue



She met a boy out there

with a silver El Dorado and jet black hair

He had a tatoo of Elvis

So they took their clothes off to compare

And well, you know, just how far these things can go

Then the sun came shinging bright

And true love in the mornings doesn't feel like it did last night

He left a letter that said "Goodbye, hold on tight"

And now he's gone

So she'll just move along



[CHORUS]



So you said that you don't know how

Your broken dreams just drag you down...



[CHORUS]



Na na na na na na na na..... (repeat)



Hey Girl

Where you going to

Hey girl....
