The Boswell Sisters all dressed up with a broken heart

Even though my heart is broken
I'm always at game
I just let them think I'm jokin'
It's better that way
My heart is achin', but no one will know
Clownin' and jokin' here, away I go
I'm all dressed up with a broken heart
Just like an actor that plays a part
I'm playing the role of a jackal and horse
An unhappy soul that keeps smiling outside
This was the stage and we're all in a show
There's no applaud for the loser, you know
Thou is my chapter
I go all dressed up with a broken heart
This was the stage and we're all, all in a show
There's no applaud for the loser, you know
Thou is my chapter
I go all dressed up
Walking around with a broken heart
