Doyle Lawson and Quicksilver - Heartbreak Number Nine Lyrics

Well I thought I had a love forever
that she was the one for me.
Life was sweet, I had everything
We were happy as could be
But today she took me by surprise
with a note up on my door
And the words she wrote
still haunt my mind "Sayin'
I don't love you anymore."

Blow blow whistle blow
Engineer let those big wheels roll
Farther on down the track
I don't know where I am bound
I just got to get out of this town
Where she stops nobody knows
So blow whistle blow.

Now I've lived and learned
and let me say "Take it from me
cause I've been there"
That true love it don't come easy
And sometimes it just aint fair.
So before you give your heart away
And you lay it on the line
Make sure you've got a one way ticket
on ole heart break number nine

So before you give your heart away
And you lay it on the line
Make sure you've got a one way ticket
on ole heart break number nine

Blow blow whistle blow
Engineer let those big wheels roll
Farther on down the track
I don't know where I am bound
I just got to get out of this town
Where she stops nobody knows
So blow whistle blow.

Where she stops nobody knows
So blow whistle blow.
