Lend me your ear, draw a bit more near

I'll tell you the true story of, The First Country Heartbreak Song

[VERSE 1]

AP Carter lived in a valley poor 

Poor Valley really was it's name

Pocket full of dust, head so full of tunes

Singing fine songs was his game

He Sought every sound, drove on every ground down each hollow deep

Driving roads that went on oh so long

Left his wife alone, searching for his dream

Hoping that one day he’d write

The first country heartbreak song

[VERSE 2]

His wife Sarah sang with a voice so pure 

But he would chase a different sound

Sarah gripped his sleeve, eyes begged him stay

Sad nights on music's lonely ground 

As in every song, came a long a boy

Couldn’t pick guitar  but love beat strong 

His name was Coy Bayes, wouldn't leave her side

Twas the start of what would be the first country heartbreak song

[VERSE 3]

Bibles thumped like drums, "MARRIAGE IS FOR LIFE"

Cold harmony from every mouth

Families lied to Coy, then they lied to her

Sent him up north and her down south

Then they stole their words, rewrote their love tuned

Parents hid the mail, said that it was wrong 

Convinced both their hearts neither never cared

Told them that their love was now the first country heartbreak song 

BREAK

[VERSE 4]


Coy twisted the dial through his mountain fog,

A low voice pierced the darkened skies.

Heard his Sarah sing "for my Coy Bayes"

"I'm thinking tonight of my blue eyes"

Fire went down his spine “Mother why'd you lie” 

I'm gonna go back to where I belong

Sarah in his arms, never left his side

"they didn’t let their love become

The first country heartbreak song



[VERSE 5]

When you sing a tune in the house he built

Sing a verse for our good old AP

He raised the roof with song. His heart laid in each beam

And Built us a porch of harmony

But his lonesome call still haunts every note

He lost his girl so we can sing along

Did he dream each night of her blue eyes? 

How could he know he would write 

The first country heartbreak song?



How could he know he would write

The first country heartbreak song?
