It Broke My Heart

Lyrics

Saw a man who was fifty-one

He bad married daughters and a single son

And he's lost his job as this years 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

They were 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.
