Miranda Lambert - Mama's Broken Heart lyrics
[Miranda Lambert - Mama's Broken Heart lyrics]
I cut my bangs with
Some rusty kitchen scissors
I screamed his name 'til the
Neighbors called the cops
I numbed the pain at the expense of my liver
Don't know what I did next
All I know I couldn't stop
Word got around to the
Barflies and 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 and fix your make up, girl
It's just a break up
Run and hide your crazy and
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
I wish I could be just a little less dramatic
Like a Kennedy when Camelot
Went down in flames
Leave it to me to be holding the matches
When the fire trucks show up and
There's nobody else to blame
Can't get revenge and keep
A spotless reputation (Ah)
Sometimes revenge's just a choice
You gotta make (Ah)
My mama came from a softer generation
Where you get a grip and bite your
Lip just to save a little face
Go and fix your make up, girl
It's just a break up
Run and hide your crazy and
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 and keep 'em closed
Cross your legs, dot your eyes
And never let 'em see you cry
Go and fix your make up, well
It's just a break up
Run and hide your crazy and
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
Some rusty kitchen scissors
I screamed his name 'til the
Neighbors called the cops
I numbed the pain at the expense of my liver
Don't know what I did next
All I know I couldn't stop
Word got around to the
Barflies and 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 and fix your make up, girl
It's just a break up
Run and hide your crazy and
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
I wish I could be just a little less dramatic
Like a Kennedy when Camelot
Went down in flames
Leave it to me to be holding the matches
When the fire trucks show up and
There's nobody else to blame
Can't get revenge and keep
A spotless reputation (Ah)
Sometimes revenge's just a choice
You gotta make (Ah)
My mama came from a softer generation
Where you get a grip and bite your

Gotta keep it together
Even when you fall apart
But this ain't my mama's broken heart
