I got the backache so bad I can't even pull off my shoes
I got the backache so bad I can't even pull off my shoes
I'm just layin' 'round here, with those backache blues

When I was on my feet, I couldn't walk down the street, for all these pigmeats just jazzin' at me, but
Ooo now, this backache's killin' me
I'm on my way to the doctor, I'm 'fraid I am too late

This backache ain't bad, but your girl will treat you so low-down (Spoken: Lord, Lord!)
This backache ain't bad, but your girl will treat you so low-down
They will all stay 'way from you, on the other side of town

SOLO (Spoken: Lord, Lord!)

Mmm-now, my kidneys hurtin' me
Mmm-now, my kidneys hurtin' me
I'm on my way to the doctor, I'm 'fraid I am too late

When I was in my prime, I could love two, three girls, any old time, now I'm sick and down, can't get around
Lord, Lord, this backache's killin' me
I'm on my way to the doctor, I'm 'fraid I am too late
