Lyrics The Paul Butterfield Blues Band

The Paul Butterfield Blues Band

One More Heartache

One more heartache, baby, I can't take it, now

My heart is carryin' such a heavy load

One more ache would break it

Just like the camel with the heavy back, yeah

One last straw, they say broke the camel's back

Oh baby, oh, I can't take it, babe

I can't stand it, now

One more heartache, it would turn me right around

First you build my hopes up high then you let me down

Like the house's built from toothpicks stacked upon the kitchen table

One last toothpick tore it down, the foundation was not able

Oh, baby, oh, I can't take it, babe

I can't stand it, now, oh

One more heartache

One more heartache, baby, I can't take it, now

My heart is carryin' such a heavy load

One more ache would break it

Just like the camel with the heavy back, yeah

One last straw, they say broke the camel's back

Oh baby, oh, I can't take it, babe

I can't stand it, now

One more heartache, baby

One more, now, heartache, baby

Without your love, I [Incomprehensible] baby

Now, I can't stand it no longer

Oh, baby, ooh, come on

Won't you listen to my plea?

Oh please, baby, oh please, baby
