Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When you got a headache
Headache powder soothe the pain
When you're tired, you rest
Lord, you feel all right again
[Verse 2]
When you got a backache
A little rubbing will see you through
But when you got a heartache
There ain't nothing you can do
[Verse 3]
A man can't break a stone
So he tries another lick
A iceman can't cut his ice
No
So he buys another pick
[Verse 4]
Electric lights go out
But a candle light
Will see you through
But when you got a heartache
There ain't nothing you can do
[Verse 5]
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
[Verse 6]
When you meet a friend
You smile because you glad
When a friend deceives you
It makes you feel so bad
[Verse 7]
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
[Verse 8]
There ain't nothing you can do
I said there ain't nothing you can do
Lord, no
I said there ain't nothing you can do
Every time I think about it
