When you got a headache, a headache powder'll soothe the pain
When you try to rest, Lord, you feel alright again
A When you got a backache, a little rubbin' will see you thru
But when you got a heartache, there ain't nothin' you can do

A man can't break a stone, so he tries another lick
iceman can't cut his ice, no, so he buys another pick
Electric lights go out, but a candlelight will see you through
But when you got a heartache, there ain't nothing you can do

There ain't nothing you can do, I said there ain't nothing you can do When
you got a heartache, there ain't nothing you can do

When you a meet a friend, you smile because you're glad
When a friend deceives you, it makes you feel so bad
When you lose your loved one, it makes you feel so blue

And then you've got a heartache, and there ain't nothing you can do
There ain't nothing you can do, I said there ain't nothing you can do wa
ah no, I said there ain't nothing you can do (fade)Everytime I think about
it, everytime
