It Broke My Heart |
| Saw a man who was fifty-one |
| He had married daughters and a single son |
| And he’s lost his job as this year’s begun |
| And it broke my heart |
| Saw his wife who was fifty-two |
| She said she was sure they could make it through |
| That her single wage would just have to do |
| And it broke my heart |
| Talked about it with the family now |
| What began in sadness ended up a row |
| All the guys with the clever mouths |
| Who are saying we should move south |
| Saw the son who’s been gone two weeks |
| And he’s down already with a job to seek |
| And he’s in Kings Cross and theres no-one speaking |
| And it broke my heart |
