There a time in my life When it ran so cold Can't find a friend Anywhere at all So my brother said to me "Charles, you gotta stand tall Because life is full of sorrow Heartaches and pain. Again and again." I woke up this morning My mama, she was cryin' So I looked out my window Police lights was flashing People was screaming So I ran down to the street A friend grabbed my shoulder And he said these words to me "Life is full of sorrow So I have to tell you this Your brother is gone." Heartaches and pain Heartaches, heartaches and pain Ooh, oh Ooh, oh na na Heartaches and pain, oh Heartaches and pain, no no no Heartaches and pain Heartaches and pain
