You thought you had it all figured out, you thought you had it made
But as soon as he turns his back, you're out the door again
Now he'll never see the shackles that were there from the start
Oh girl, maybe you deserve your broken heart
You start your drinkin' you start to smoke to drown that old pain away
It's the same as the last time, you're doing it all again
Now he'll never know how many times you've gone back to the start
Oh girl, maybe you deserve your broken heart
Now I laid my head down into his lap
I laid my head down into his lap
And I stayed there like a rabbit in a trap
When I laid my head down into his lap, oh child
He thought he had you all figured out, he thought he had it made
You took his love and his great big heart and dug away down deep in the sand
Now he'll keep believing he just didn't fit the part
Oh girl, maybe you deserve your broken heart
Oh girl, maybe you deserve your broken heart
