Humpty Dumpty sat on the wall
Humpty Dumpty had a big fall
All the king's horses, all the king's men
Could never put Humpty together again.

I've got a Humpty Dumpty heart
You dropped it and broke it apart
All the king's horses, all the king's men
Could never put it together again.

Cause when I gave to you my heart
You said that we must part
That was my doom, my heart went boom
I got a Humpty Dumpty heart.

A heart is a fragile thing

When dropped it won't bounce or ring
It ain't no joke cause when it's broke
No love song will it sing.


I've got a Humpty Dumpty heart
You dropped it and broke it apart
All the king's horses, all the king's men
Could never put it together again.

But when I gave to you my heart
You said that we must part
That was my doom, my heart went boom
I got a Humpty Dumpty heart.

I didn't think you were that sort when I handed you my heart
You got it on a platter but you let it shatter
My Humpty Dumpty heart.

I've got a Humpty Dumpty heart
You dropped it and broke it apart
All the king's horses, all the king's men
Could never put it together again.

Cause when I gave to you my heart
You said that we must part

That was my doom, my heart went boom
I got a Humpty Dumpty heart.

Hank Thompson dedicated this song to the little girl in the polka dot dress.
