Guy Clark - Broken Hearted People [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
Broken hearted people always seem to drink
Trying to drown those sorrows, it ain't as easy as you think
Living with a liar is a hard old way to go
Laughing just to keep from crying ain't no way to grow old

[Chorus]
So take me to a barroom, driver
Set me on a stool
If I can't be her man
I'm damned if I'll be her fool

[Verse 2]
They say that whiskey ain't the best way, but then I ain't too smart
To think I just found out she was lying from the start
So if this is nothing but a bad joke looking for a laugh
Well, hold on to your lampshade darling, cause I'm looking for a hat

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
So get this taxi moving because I have got no time to lose
And there's no time to be choosy, you know that any old bar will do
And I'm looking to get silly and I'm looking to get loose
And if that don't get it done darling, I'll come looking for you

[Chorus][x2]
