A Well you can tell the world you never was my girl E You can burn my clothes when I am gone Or you can tell your friends just what a fool I've been A And laugh and joke about me on the phone You can tell my arms go back onto the farm Or you can tell my feet to hit the floor Or you can tell my lips to tell my fingertips They won't be reaching out for you no more A But don't tell my heart My achy breaky heart E I just don't think he'd understand And if you tell my heart My achy breaky heart A He might blow up and kill this man ooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhh You can tell your ma I moved to Arcansas Or you can tell your dog to bit my leg Or tell your brother Cliff who's fist can tell my lip He never really liked me anyway Or tell your aunt Louise tell anything you please Myself already knows I'm not ok Or you can tell my eye to watch out for my mind It might be walkin' out on me today Chorus: A E A E A Chorus:
