I got the backache so bad I can't even pull off my shoe
I got the backache so bad I can't even pull off my shoe
I'm just laying' 'round here with those old backache blues

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

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

Aw, the 'ackache ain't bad, but your girl will treat you so low-down
This backache ain't bad, but your girl will treat you so low-down
They'll all lay 'way from you, on the other side of town

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