"Break Your Mama's Heart" lyrics

She thought you were learning to walk
But you were learning how to run
Well, she was reading you "Goodnight Moon"
But you were staring at the sun
Rebel eyes and a crooked smile
A wild child from the start
From the day you were born, you were born to break
Break your mama's heart

Yeah

First car, first kiss, first cigarette
It all came way too fast
You never saw her looking out
'Cause you weren't looking back
When you were lighting up the night
She left a light on in the dark
From the day you were born, you were born to break
Break your mama's heart

Highway hellbound heart with neon flowing through your veins
Hitchhike through your wildest dreams with nothing but your name
She's been letting go since she first held you in her arms
From the day you were born, you were born to break
Break your mama's heart

Hey mama, won't you say a little prayer for me?
Hey mama, I'm never too far gone
Hey mama, you know there's only one road home
Keep an eye out for this rolling stone

Happy, sad, good and bad, it takes all kinds of tears
Someday you might understand, but it takes all kind of years
It ain't your fault 'cause for us all, it's all just in the cards
From the day you were born, you were born to break
Break your mama's heart

Highway hellbound heart with neon flowing through your veins
Hitchhike through your wildest dreams with nothing but your name
She's been letting go since she first held you in her arms
From the day you were born, you were born to break
Break your mama's heart
From the day you were born, you were born to break
Break your mama's heart

Yeah, your poor mama's heart
