The other kids said you would never be mine
Now you're datin' with her but I'm doing real fine
Cause I'm going steady with a heartache
Remember the rides in your crazy jalop
Now you're driving her car with the pushbutton top
And I'm going steady with a heartache.

Everyone says I look happy but oh how looks deceive
She's carrying your heart in her pocket
While I'm wearin' mine on my sleeve
A rainy night date and a jacket for two
Now I wear it alone and it's crying for you
While I'm going steady with a heartache.

Yes, I'm going steady with a heartache...
