The song "I Broke My Leg" by Joe Walsh tells the story of a man who meets a woman in a shopping mall, and they begin dating. They go to the movies, out to dinner, and even take a trip to Las Vegas together. The man takes the woman shopping, and eventually they end up in Aspen. Unfortunately, while in Aspen, the man breaks his leg, and the woman falls in love with someone else. The lyrics are somewhat tongue-in-cheek, with the man recounting all the extravagant things he did for the woman before ultimately losing her to someone else. The line "I got a letter from my ex-baby today, nice" suggests that despite the heartbreak, the man is moving on and even finding humor in the situation. Overall, the song is a lighthearted portrayal of a love affair that didn't work out in the end.
