Ain't Nothing You Can Do
Heartache Chronicles: Navigating Life's Pains with Andrew Strong
Lyrics
When you got a headache
Experiencing a headache
Headache powder soothe the pain
Using headache powder to alleviate the pain
When you try to rest
Attempting to rest
Lord, you feel alright again
Feeling better after resting
When you got a backache
Having a backache
A little rubbin' will see you through
Using rubbing to overcome the backache
But when you got a heartache
Dealing with a heartache
There ain't nothin' you can do
Feeling helpless when experiencing heartache
A man can't break a stone
Metaphorically, a man facing challenges
So he tries another lick
Trying different approaches to overcome obstacles
An iceman can't cut his ice, no Lord
Using a pick as a tool to cut ice
So he buys another pick
Adapting and trying alternative solutions
Electric lights go out
Electric lights failing
But a candle light will see you through
Using candlelight as a backup source
But when you got a heartache
Feeling helpless in the face of heartache
There ain't nothing you can do
Expressing the powerlessness when dealing with heartache
There ain't nothing you can do
Reiterating the helplessness in the face of heartache
I said there ain't nothing you can do
Emphasizing the lack of solutions for heartache
When you got a heartache
Experiencing heartache
There ain't nothing you can do
Stating the inability to do anything about heartache
A-when you a meet a friend
Meeting a friend
You smile because you glad
Feeling joy when meeting a friend
When a friend deceive you
Experiencing disappointment when a friend deceives
It makes you feel so bad
Feeling emotionally hurt by deception
When you lose your love one
Losing a loved one
It makes you feel so blue
Feeling deep sadness and melancholy
And then you've got a heartache
Experiencing heartache after losing a loved one
And there ain't nothing you can do
Expressing the powerlessness in the face of heartache
Well, there ain't nothing you can do
Reiterating the helplessness in the face of heartache
I said, there ain't nothing you can do
Emphasizing the lack of solutions for heartache
Lordy
Expressing a strong emotion, possibly frustration or despair
Ev'ry time I think about it
Reflecting on the difficulty of the situation
I said, ev'rytime I get a li'l lonely, sometime
Feeling lonely and acknowledging the helplessness
There ain't nothin' you can do, baby, no Lord
Reiterating the lack of solutions for loneliness
There ain't nothin' you can do
Stating the inability to do anything about loneliness
Sometimes I get so lonely
Expressing deep loneliness
