the heart that you own

Singer:yoakam, dwight

i pay rent on a run-down place

there ain't no view but there's lots of space

in my heart

the heart that you own

i pay the rent

pay it right on time

baby i pay you ever single dime

for my heart

the heart that you own

used to be i could love here for free

way back before you bought the property

now i pay daily on what once was mine

lord i probably owe you for these tears that i cry

'cause i pay rent on a run-down place

there ain't no view but there's lots of space

in my heart

the heart that you own

i struggle each night to find a new way

to pay what i owe just so i can stay

i ain't overdue so you can't throw me out

i've loved here for years don't know where i'd go now

'cause i pay rent on a run-down place

there ain't no view but there's lots of space

in my heart

the heart that you own

yea

my heart

the heart that you own
