This heart of mine It's an early riser The rooster crows and I'm wide awake This heart of mine It's a real slave driver I don't think it knows it's supposed to break I packed my past in a big black sack Left it with the rubbish by the railroad tracks This heart of mine It's an early riser now This heart of mine It's a real hard worker Always got a hand in this and that This heart of mine It's a real slow learner I don't think it knows it's supposed to crack I packed my past in a big black case Put a smile on both sides of my face This heart of mine It's a real hard worker now This heart of mine It's a real bullshitter Stays up all night just chewing that fat My dad used to say You can't kid a kidder This heart of mine's not sure about that I ditched my past in a big black hole I've got a bone to pick with my soul This heart of mine It's a real bullshitter now
