Broken String Lyrics

A second coming would never last

With a loaded gun and a knife in his back

It's such a lazy way to go

I've heard you tried to be a different man

That you left this town and broke her heart

And that you don't care anymore about the times you had

And that you don't care anymore that she don't want you back

Your mother was born of a second son

And you were born on a bottle of rum

Your brother was a lover, he said he was a broken string

He said to you"boy, why don't you take her that ring?"

I've heard you left town and changed your name

Met another girl of wealth and fame

It's such a lazy way to go

Your mother was born of a second son, and you were born on a bottle of rum

Your brother was a lover, he said he was a broken string

He said to you"boy, why don't you take her that ring?"

I've heard you left town and changed your name

Met another girl of wealth and fame

It's such a lazy way to go
