Long ago it seemed to me I had it made
I had a little money, I had my little honey
One day her feelings strayed to another guy
And I lost everything but a hurt her memory brings

Heartaches in heartaches, teardrops on teardrops
That's all I've known since she went and turned me down
Heartaches in heartaches, teardrops on teardrops
Since my baby left me in this town

Any man can claim to have his share of sadness
That's the way they made it and they ain't gonna change it
Since my baby left I been workin' overtime
And there's no vacation, such a mean sensation

Oh, heartaches in heartaches, teardrops on teardrops
That's all I've known since she went and turned me down
Heartaches in heartaches, teardrops on teardrops
Since my baby left me in this town

Oh

Heartaches in heartaches, teardrops on teardrops
That's all I've known since she went and turned me down
Heartaches in heartaches, teardrops on teardrops
Since my baby left me in this town
Oh, heartaches in heartaches, teardrops on teardrops
That's all I've known since she went and turned me down
Heartaches in heartaches, teardrops on teardrops
Since my baby left me in this town
