lyrics

The best damn cure for a broken heart

is get the hell out of dodge and make a new start

Once upon a time this prick and I had a three year thing

Three years too many if you know what I mean

I wanted an adventure but he said I’d never do it
Bought a one way ticket, I was off before he knew it



Then I loved a man with the biggest smile

Sharp as a whip and I’m a sapiophile

He said he thought he loved me but he let me go,

Three weeks later I was driving down to New Mexico



Because the best damn cure for a broken heart

is get the hell out of dodge and make a new start

Memories disappear in the rear-view mirror

Let the wind through the window dry my tears



You know it’s never too late for a clean, clean slate



Then I met a woman, swept me off my feet

Considerate and anxious and jealous and sweet

Two years later in the mirror all I saw was a ghost

Packed the car and drove down to the Mexican coast



Because the best damn cure for a broken heart

is get the hell out of dodge and make a new start

Memories disappear in the rear-view mirror

Let the wind through the window dry my tears 



You know my trusty remedy for a case of heartbreak

leave that town and hit the highway

The only things I’m taking with me are my dog and my scars

And whatever else fits in the back of my car



You know it’s never too late for a clean, clean slate



Oh honey, you gotta know
I’m a wandering woman, I was born to roam

When things fall apart between you and me
Those sweet open roads are gonna call me home

You know it kills me that we’re through
God knows I’ll never find another you

But the best place to grieve is on the road outta town
Breakup songs cranked up and the windows rolled down
