I was once a broken man; I was once a broken fool Lost my wife and children to one basic broken rule Now I live my life in silence though I'm not quite in a shell I drink and listen to that song, a whiter shade of pale Oh, a whiter shade of pale
I was a good shade tree mechanic so I sent myself to school They smoothed out my rough edges; in my hands they put new tools The instructor once he told me I could work on any line I could tune and make a diesel sing just like Patsy Cline Oh, just like Patsy Cline
Well, I met my wife to be through my mother's best friend son She'd been a barroom singer; she was as good as anyone But I asked her to stop singing and the girl, she did not flinch Next day she went and bought that man a brand new crescent wrench Oh, a brand new crescent wrench
Well, we had three fine children as eight years went on by I learned to supervise a line, my knuckles stayed bone dry But after supper I kept hearing her by the kitchen radio Singing sweet but desperate harmony a little bit too low Oh, a little bit too low
She left three months later, I'd just come home for lunch The note said easy come hard go but still love you much She said I don't know if I'll be back or if you'll want me if I come But if and when that happens, dear, you better let my sweet dream run Oh, let my sweet dream run
I was a good shade tree mechanic so I sent myself to school They smoothed out my rough edges; in my hands they put new tools The instructor once he told me I could work on any line But now my diesels ain't the only thing that sing like Patsy Cline Oh, can sing like Patsy Cline
I was once a broken man; I was once a broken fool Lost my wife and children to one basic broken rule Now I live my life in silence though I'm not quite in a shell I drink and listen to that song, a whiter shade of pale Oh, a whiter shade of pale
