I got a headache from the workday and a heartache from last night.
Anything that could have lain lay did not go right.
They say that time is the ticket but I sure ain't got the time.
With a little jingle in my pocket, there's a mission on my mind:
I got some pain to kill, hurt to heal.
Anything I have to do, I will.
So come on, baby, let's take a ride,
Way on over to the other side,
Of this low down, lonely, no good way to feel.
I got some pain to kill.
Gonna find me a party, maybe start one of my own.
Light a fire of my troubles and dance around the smoke.
I might regret it, come tomorrow, when I'm nursing the good time flu.
But a girl in my condition only has one thing to lose.
I got some pain to kill, hurt to heal.
Anything I have to do, I will.
So come on, baby, let's take a ride,
Way on over to the other side,
Of this low down, lonely, no good way to feel.
I got some pain to kill.
Instrumental break.
Promotion bumped me; boyfriend dumped me.
I gotta do something:
So until the sun comes up on Sunday:
I got some pain to kill, hurt to heal.
Anything I have to do, I will.
So come on, baby, let's take a ride,
Way on over to the other side,
Of this low down, lonely, no good way to feel.
I got some pain to kill, hurt to heal.
Anything I have to do, I will.
So come on, baby, let's take a ride,
Way on over to the other side,
Of this low down, lonely, no good way to feel.
I got some pain to kill.
I got some real pain to kill.
