Shake a Heartache
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
If truth be told, you know I'm too tired to lie
When I think about us, I just sit back and sigh
What used to be, you and me, and who we are now
And how it got to this, I just don't know how
Half-full or half-empty, there's no way of knowing
But once upon a time, that cup was overflowing
Girl, I need a shot of love like a drunk needs whiskey
It's now or never, baby, are you gone or you with me?
Ooh, shake a heartache and give my love what it's needing
Shake a heartache, find a way to stop the bleeding
Shake a heartache, gonna shake it real slow
Until there's nothing shaking but the radio
Singing yeah, yeah, yeah
So long overdue, lose the blues, you better hold on real tight
Yeah, yeah, yeah
We're gonna make the earth quake and shake a heartache tonight
Like a rock-your-socks jukebox kind of romancing
Your momma never let you watch that movie Dirty Dancing
We were cut-a-rugging, jitterbugging just like Swayze
Gonna be bop a loo bop be bop ya crazy
We were doing all the things that they said we shouldn't do
We were singing with the stars, we were howling at the moon
I miss those midnight rides in the back of my truck
Tank is sittin' on E, it's time we fill it back up
Ooh, shake a heartache and give my love what it's needing
Shake a heartache, find a way to stop the bleeding
Shake a heartache, gonna shake it real slow
Until there's nothing shaking but the radio
Singing yeah, yeah, yeah
So long overdue, lose the blues, you better hold on real tight
Yeah, yeah, yeah
We're gonna make the earth quake and shake a heartache tonight
I'll take you home and taste your sweet red lips
Gonna shake a heartache, shimmy shaking those hips
Rocking and a-rolling to the rhythm of the beats
Gonna shake a heartache underneath the sheets
Singing yeah, yeah, yeah
So long overdue, lose the blues you better hold on real tight
Yeah, yeah, yeah
We're gonna make the earth quake and shake a heartache tonight
Ooh, shake a heartache and give my love what it's needing
Shake a heartache, find a way to stop the bleeding
Shake a heartache, we're gonna shake it real slow
Until there's nothing shaking but the radio
Singing yeah, yeah, yeah
So long overdue, lose the blues, you better hold on real tight
Yeah, yeah, yeah
We're gonna make the earth quake and shake a heartache tonight
Yeah, yeah, yeah
So long overdue, lose the blues, you better hold on real tight
Yeah, yeah, yeah
We're gonna make the earth quake and shake a heartache tonight
Make the earth quake and shake a heartache tonight
We're gonna make the earth quake
We're gonna shake that heartache tonight
We're gonna shake that heartache tonight
We're gonna shake that heartache
