Well  I've had a splittin' headache  from my eyebrows  to my backbone
Arthritis,  appendicitis, brights  disease and gall  stones
Bleedin'  ulcers, ingrown  toe nails, swollen  adenoids
 The Asian  flu a time  or two and inflamed  vocal chords
 I've had  a toothache so  severe my jawbone split in two
 But nothing's  ever hurt  me half as bad  as losing you
 Well I've had the lit end of a cigar pressed against my belly
 Whipped on with a crowbar till my eyeball turned to jelly
 Accidentally nailed my index finger to the wall
 Cut off all my toes and soaked my foot in alcohol
 I've had my pelvis ruptured by an angry kangaroo
 But nothing's ever hurt me half as bad as losing you
 Well it's not  because you measure fifty twenty forty four
 It's surely  not because you own a chain of liquor stores
 It's not  because your daddy is the richest man in town
 It's just  that I've grown used to you and having you around
 (up ½ measure to )
 I've had my parents tell me son we don't love you at all
 I've seen my sister's name written on a washroom wall
 My best friend set my barn on fire burned my horse to death
 I went out with a girl who told me that I had bad breath
 Last week I drew a crowd when I went to the city zoo
 But nothing's ever hurt me half as bad as losing you
 Well I've had a splittin' headache...
