Lyrics to This Puppy's Broke

I took my truck to Jimmy’s shop

Find myself here quite a lot

Pushed her up the final mile

To save her soul

Jim took one look and shook his head

He said my truck was close to dead

It’s just gone

About to croak

This puppy’s broke

I took my heart to Jenna Lee

The one I thought would marry me

Asked my girl to be my world

On bended knee

She took one look and shook her head

She tossed the ring, said we were dead

Now my heart’s

Become her joke

This puppy’s broke

But it don’t matter

If you’re not perfect or well-bred

Just cuz you’re broken

Don’t mean you’re useless or you’re dead

So take your troubles

I’ll take my truck, my shattered heart

And we’ll move on, move on

I took my truck and drove downtown

Came across the city pound

Saw a dog with limpy legs

A busted nose

I took one look and fell in love

This beagle soon became my pup

I’ll keep him safe

My furry bloke

This puppy’s broke

But it don’t matter

If you’re not perfect or well-bred

Just cuz you’re broken

Don’t mean you’re useless or you’re dead

So take your troubles

I’ll take my truck, my pup, my heart

And we’ll move on, move on

So when the world has got you down

When you’re feelin’ kicked around

Remember life ain’t always kind

But that’s okay

Take one more look, Don’t lose your head

Cuz it ain’t over til you’re dead

This ain’t the time

To quit or choke

Just cuz you’re broke

Oh it don’t matter

If you’re not perfect or well-bred

Just cuz you’re broken

Don’t mean you’re useless or you’re dead

So take your troubles

I’ll take my truck, my pup, my heart

And we’ll move on, move on

Tonight I’ll take my heart and pup

Place them in my broken truck

Fly right by the county line

And yeah we’re stoked

Cuz we’ll be fine and soon you’ll see

Our little broken family

We’re tattered, torn, messed-up folk

And yeah, we’re broke

My truck is broke

And my heart is broke

And my puppy’s broke
