Lyrics

[Verse 1]
He wore that cowboy hat
To cover up his horns
Sweet talkin' forked tongue
Had a tempting charm
[Bridge]
Before I turned around
That girl was gone
All I can say is
Bartender, pour me something strong
[Chorus]
Here's to the past
They can kiss my glass
I hope she's happy with him
Here's to the girl
Who wrecked my world
That angel who did me in
I think the devil drives a Coupe de Ville
I watched 'em drive away over the hill
Not against her will
And I've got time to kill
Down in Brokenheartsville
[Verse 2]
It was long and chrome
Sittin' in the lot
And fire engine red
That thing was hot
[Bridge]
He revved it up
She waved goodbye
Well, love's gone to hell
And so have I
[Chorus]
Here's to the past
They can kiss my glass
I hope she's happy with him
Here's to the girl
Who wrecked my world
That angel who did me in
I think the devil drives a Coupe de Ville
I watched 'em drive away over the hill
Not against her will
And I've got time to kill
Down in Brokenheartsville
[Chorus]
Here's to the past
They can kiss my glass
I hope she's happy with him
Here's to the girl
Who wrecked my world
That angel who did me in
I think the devil drives a Coupe de Ville
I watched 'em drive away over the hill
Not against her will
And I've got time to kill
Down in Brokenheartsville
