Miranda Lambert - Mama's Broken Heart lyrics

rate me

I cut my bangs with some rusty kitchen scissors

I screamed his name till the neighbors called the cops

I numbed the pain at the expense of my liver

I don't know what I did next all I know, I couldn't stop

Word got around to the barflies & the Baptists

My mama's phone started ringin off the hook

I can hear her now sayin she ain't gonna have it

Don't matter how you feel, it only matters how you look

Go & fix your make up, girl it's just a break up

Run & hide your crazy & start actin like a lady

Cause I raised you better, gotta keep it together

Even when you fall apart

But this ain't my mama's broken heart

Wish I could be just a little less dramatic

Like Kennedy when Camelot went down in flames

Leave it to me to be holdin the matches

When the fire trucks shows up & there's nobody else to blame

Can't get revenge & keep a spotless reputation

Sometimes revenge is a choice you gotta make

My mama came from a softer generation

Where you get a grip & bite your lip & save a little face

Go & fix your make up, girl it's just a break up

Run & hide your crazy & start actin like a lady

Cause I raised you better, gotta keep it together

Even when you fall apart

But this ain't my mama's broken heart

Powder your nose, paint your toes

Line your lips & keep em closed

Cross your legs, dot your I's

& never let him see you cry

Go & fix your make up, girl it's just a break up

Run & hide your crazy & start actin like a lady

Cause I raised you better, gotta keep it together

Even when you fall apart

But this ain't my mama's broken heart
