No Spare Parts Songtext / Lyric

Baby, baby, baby, baby...



Daddy drunk, daddy drunk himself to death

When he was thirty-five years old

Left five daughters An' book 'em on the Cayman row

Put 'em down an' left an' he left all pain to me

An' a pullin' outta Dallas

An' the dirt back in Tennessee



So I called big sister on the telephone

I said how y'all down there in 'ere call t'home

Girl you won't starve for fortune and fame

To earn big money in Dallas and make her name



Lonely hearts

They're just made to break

There ain't no spare parts

Ain't no oil to change



Honey, I ain't accustomed to lose

If I want somethin' bad

I always find a way to get thru






I tell ya somethin'

I ain't accustomed t'lose

If I want somethin' bad enough

I always find a way to get thru



Lonely hearts

They're just made to break

There ain't no spare parts

Ain't no oil to change



I could be there Thanksgiving afternoon

With a turkey in m'hand

And ah oughta buy a bottle o' boo'...

I took a short cut about a quarter down

The turnpike road

And I'll fill 'er up with gas

Ah'm a fill 'er 'bout San Antone

An' I'll make it t'Dallas 'bout a quarter pa'...half past three

Just another 30 miles

On the road back to 443



You know, lonely hearts

They're just made to break

There ain't no spare parts

There ain't no oil to change



I tell ya

I ain't accustomed to lose

If I want somethin' bad enough

I always find a way to get it, baby

Including you



I tell ya something

I ain't ever gonna lose



If I want somethin' bad enough

I always find a way to get it, baby

Including you



I could be there Thanksgiving afternoon

If I start off now put my foot down the floor, damn too



I spoke to big sister on the telephone

She said come on big brother

Why don't you come on back home



I said, lonely hearts

They're just made to break

There ain't no spare parts

Aint' no oil to change



I tell ya, honey

I ain't accustomed to lose

If I want somethin' bad enough

I always find a way to get it, mmmmm

Talkin ' bout you



If I want somethin' bad enough

I always find a way to get it Don't I?



If I want somethin' bad enough

I always find a way to get it Don't I?



If I want somethin' strong enough

I always find a way to get it



Baby! Shoo-gahh!

Ahhhh, yah, yah, yah...



Tell ya somethin', babe

I ain't accustomed to lose



If I want somethin' bad enough

I always find a way to get it



If I want somethin' bad enough

I always find a way to get it



Lonely hearts

They're just made to break

There ain't no spare parts

There ain't no oil to change



Lonely hearts

They're just made to break

Ain't no spare parts

There ain't no oil to change



Now, I'm, I'm a-comin' back

Comin' back a'home Thursday afternoon

If I don't tumble down hard

Really like a way to get thru
