[Lyric] Hole Where The Heart Oughta Be (Pearl River)

[Verse 1]
I know a woman that's a mental wreck
Oh, she's married to a problem that she can't correct
Her love is a ball and chain and it's dragging her down
She'd love to lay on his shoulder but he's never inclined
He's to busy making millions, but he ain't worth a dime
She's just a prisoner of her pain on his merry-go-round

[Chorus]
‘Cause he’s got a hole where the heart oughta be
He's got whole town fooled
Everybody but me
Now her head's in a noose, he could cut her loose
But he ain't got the decency
'Cause he's got a hole where the heart oughta be

[Verse 2]
She's a lonely role in a very bad scene
And sometimes I wish I could intervene
But I just lose a friend or even lose my life
Oh, in my darkened room, I contemplate
Oh, she could've been mine, but for a twisted fate
And a voice in my head keeps asking me why, why, why, why, why
[Chorus]

[Outro]
Now her head's in a noose, he could cut her loose
But he ain't got the decency
'Cause he's got a hole where the heart oughta be
