Verse 1

 There's a lot of cheap talk about the road I take

 There's a lot of bold horses gettin' stuck at the gate

 There's a lot of mean boys with some time to kill

 There's a lot of good women gettin' stuck with the bill

Chorus

 So won't you let this foolish feeling make you stay

 There comes a time when all your leavin' doesn't pay

 This boy is where your heart should be

 Cause you might find it cheap

 But you're never gonna find it for free

Same as verse 1:

There's a long legged lady livin' up on the hill

She got eyes like a cheetah, like a two dollar bill

I take her on down, take her out for a whirl

Then I let her fly free cos I know that she will

Chorus

So won't you let this foolish feeling make you stay

There comes a time when all your leavin' doesn't pay

This boy is where your heart should be

Cos you might find it cheap

But you're never gonna find it for free

Bridge

 You can paint your way but you're gonna have some hell to pay

 Cos when the dogs come barking at your back you better watch what you say

 Cos a day without a night is like a child without no fight

 And all the diamonds shinin bright won't help you see

 That you might find it cheap

 But you're never gonna find it for free

Same as verses:

There's a lot of cheap talk about the road I take

There's a lot of bold horses gettin' stuck at the gate

I'd give you my heart but I know it's too late

And I ain't got the time to sit around here and wait

Chorus

For you to let this foolish feeling make you stay

There comes a time when all your leavin' doesn't pay

This boy is where your heart should be

Cos you might find it cheap

But you're never gonna find it for free
