No Spare Parts letra

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 pulling 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 something bad
I always find a way to get through

I tell ya something, I ain't accustomed t'lose
If I want something bad enough
I always find a way to get through

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 thirty 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 something 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 something 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
Ain't no oil to change

I tell ya, honey, I ain't accustomed to lose
If I want something bad enough
I always find a way to get it, talking 'bout you

If I want something bad enough
I always find a way to get it, don't I?
If I want something bad enough
I always find a way to get it, don't I?
If I want something strong enough
I always find a way to get it

Baby, shoo-gahh
Ahh, yah, yah, yah

Tell ya something, babe
I ain't accustomed to lose
If I want something bad enough
I always find a way to get it
If I want something 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-coming back
Coming back a-home Thursday afternoon
If I don't tumble down hard
Really like a way to get through
