ain't nothin' you can do

when you got a headache

an you try to soothe the pain

go right back to sleep

and you'll feel all right again

when ya got a backache

little rubbin' will see you through

when you got a heartache

there ain't nothin' you can do

there ain't nothin' you can do

there ain't nothin' you can do

when you got a heartache

there ain't nothin' you can do

a man can't break a stone

so he tried another lick

iceman can't break his ice

lord

so he tries another pick

an electric lights go out

candle light will see you through

when you got a heartache

there ain't nothin' you can do

there ain't nothin' you can do

there ain't nothin' you can do

when you got a heartache

there ain't nothin' you can do

hey!

man can't break a stone

so he tried another lick

iceman can't break his ice

lord

so he tried another pick

'lectric lights go out

a candle light will see you through

when ya got a heartache

there ain't nothin' you can do

there ain't nothin' you can do

lord

there ain't nothin' you can do

hey!

when you got a heartache

there ain't nothin' you can do

ev'ry time i think about it

ev'ry time i think about it

when ya got a heartache

there ain't nothin' you can do

ev'ry time i think about it

ev'ry time i think about it
