Katherine Belle

(album: Dances For The Lonely - 2009)

She comes busting through like a hurricane at midnight
She comes busting through like she bought the place
She was just a wolf in thrift-store clothing
'Til that sheepish smile ran over her face
She stood up and said "Which one of you boys
"Which one of you boys is buying my drink?"
She started cussing like a back row Baptist
I started wond'ring what my mama would think about

Katherine Belle
I hope you're doing well
Please don't break my heart
Please don't break my heart

Well we started drinking those whiskey and gingers
We drank so much, boy, we almost drowned
The jukebox was singing like a choir on Sunday
I did the Boss, she did a mean James Brown
All of her friends, yeah, they tried to warn me
They said that horse is too wild to tame
So I took a shot and I worked out the courage
To say "Baby girl let's start with your name"
She said, "I'm...

"Katherine Belle
"I hope you're doing well
"Please don't break my heart
"Please don't break my heart"

She woke up on the wrong side of her bed
I woke up on the wrong side of town
She went to work and I went to Georgia
I wonder if she'll be there the next time around

Katherine Belle, I hope you're doing well
Please don't break my heart
Please don't break my heart

Katherine Belle, I hope you're doing well
Please don't break my heart
Please don't break my heart
