Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
I ain't never been with a woman long enough for my boots to get old
We've been together so long now they both need re-soled
If I ever settle down you'd be my kind
And it's a good time for me to head on down the line

[Chorus]
Heard it in a love song
Heard it in a love song
Heard it in a love song
Can't be wrong

[Verse 2]
I'm the kind of man who likes to get away
Like to start dreaming 'bout tomorrow today
Never said that I love you even though it's so
Where's that duffel bag of mine, it's time to go

[Chorus]
Heard it in a love song
Heard it in a love song
Heard it in a love song
Can't be wrong

[Flute, Piano, and Guitar Solos]

[Verse 3]
I'm gonna be leavin' at the break of dawn
Wish you could come but I don't need no woman taggin' along
Goin' sneak out that door, couldn't stand to see you cry
I'd stay another year if I saw a teardrop in your eye

[Chorus]
Heard it in a love song
Heard it in a love song
Heard it in a love song
Can't be wrong

[Verse 4]
I never had a damn thing but what I had, I had to leave it behind
You're the hardest thing I ever tried to get off my mind
Always something greener on the other side of that hill
I was born a wrangler and a rounder and I guess I always will

[Chorus]
Heard it in a love song
Heard it in a love song
Heard it in a love song
Can't be wrong
