Heartbreak Hill

Fats Domino · Other Songs - Fats Domino

I've got my suitcase in my hand

I walk alone a lonely man

You lie to me but I love you still

So I'm on my way to heartbreak hill

If my friends should ask on me

They know just where I'm gonna be

You lie to me now I had my thrill

So I'm on my way to heartbreak hill

I guess I'll go and join the many

Cause I know there's a plenty

Million hearts all alone

And it call heartbreak hill their home

Baby in time I'll get by

Then I'll learn not to cry

You lie to me but I love you still

So I'm on my way to heartbreak hill



I guess I'll go join the plenty

Cause I know there's a million

Million hearts all alone

And they call heartbreak hill their home

Baby in time I'll get by

Then I'll learn not to cry

You lie to me but I love you still

So I'm on my way to heartbreak hill
