nothing ever hurt me half as bad as losing you

George Jones

Well I ve had a splittin headache from my eyebrows to my backbone
Arthritis appendicitis brights disease and gall stones
Bleedin ulcers ingrown toe nails swollen adenoids
The Asian flu a time or two and inflamed vocal chords
I ve had a toothache so severe my jawbone split in two
But nothing s ever hurt me half as bad as losing you

Well I ve had the lit end of a cigar pressed against my belly
Whupped on with a crowbar till my eyeball turned to jelly
Accident ly nailed my index finger to the wall
Cut off all my toes and soaked my foot in alcohol
I ve had my pelvis ruptued by an angry kangaroo
But nothing s ever hurt me half as bad as losing you

Well it s not because you measure fifty twenty forty four
It s surely not because you own a chain of liquor stores
It s not because your daddy is the richest man in town
It s just that I ve grown used to you and having you around

I ve had my parents tell me son we don t love you at all
I ve seen my sister s name written on a washroom wall
My best friend set my barn on fire burned my horse to death
I went out with a girl who told me that I had bad breath
Last week I drew a crowd when I went to the city zoo
But nothing s ever hurt me half as bad as losing you

Well I ve had a splittin headache...
