There’s A Break In The Road – Susan Tedeschi (originally by Betty Harris)

Everybody find their own thing And I guess you think you found yours Your new thing’s supposed to burn so hot Nothing like it ever before Like the last year’s model when you put me down You handled me like a used car And when you misuse the one That’s been so good to you I don’t believe you get far
‘Cause there’s a break in the road There’s a break in every road I got mine, you’ll get yours There’s a break in every road You just dog me around, treat me like dirt You don’t care how much I hurt But there’s a break in the road There’s a break in every road
You were the only man who could turn me on And make a bad girl out of me You made me do things I never dreamed of Now you want to set me free Out in the cold I’m left alone While you gallivant with your new girl Down along the lane you travel Like you ain’t got a care in the world
But there’s a break in the road There’s a break in every road I got mine, you’ll get yours There’s a break in every road Riding high with your bad self It’s the women that carry the load I’m here to tell you, oh Lord There’s break in every road
There’s a few things you don’t understand About life and the things you do Same game you ran on me Somebody’s gonna run it on you And rain’s gonna come, it’s gonna pour down hard Gonna wash away all of my tears Well, you need a new pair of windshield wipers ‘Cause you ain’t seeing things too clear
There’s a break in the road There’s a break in every road I got mine, you get yours There’s a break in every road Oh oh Lord, there’s a break in every road Oh oh, there’s a break in every road
