Heartache TonightConway Twitty

Featuring: The Osmonds

Songwriter: J. D. Souther Bob Seger Glenn Frey Don Henley

Producer: Jimmy Bowen Conway Twitty

Somebody's gonna hurt someone
Before the night is through
Somebody's gonna come undone
There's nothin' we can do

Everybody wants to touch somebody
If it takes all night
Everybody wants to take a little chance
It make it come out right

There's gonna be a heartache tonight
A heartache tonight, I know
There's gonna be a heartache tonight
A heartache tonight, I know, yes, I know

Some people like to stay out late
Some folks can't hold out that long
Nobody wants to go home now
There's too much goin' on

This night is gonna last forever
It might last all summer long
Some time before the sun comes up
The radio is gonna play that song

There's gonna be a heartache tonight
A heartache tonight, I know
There's gonna be a heartache tonight
A heartache tonight, I know, yes, I know

There's gonna be a heartache tonight
The moon's shinin' bright
So turn out the light and we'll get it right
There's gonna be a heartache tonight
A heartache tonight, I know

Somebody's gonna hurt someone
Before the night is through
Somebody's gonna come undone
There's nothin' we can do

Everybody wants to touch somebody
If it takes all night
Everybody wants to take a little chance
It make it come out right

There's gonna be a heartache tonight
A heartache tonight, I know
There's gonna be a heartache tonight
A heartache tonight, I know, so let's go

We can beat around the bushes
We can get down to the bone
We can leave it in the parkin' lot
But either way we're goin'

There's gonna be a heartache tonight
A heartache tonight I know
There'll be a heartache tonight
A heartache tonight, I know [unverified]

Harold Lloyd Jenkins, better known as Conway Twitty, was born on September 1, 1933 in Friars Point, Coahoma County, Mississippi. He was the son of Floyd D. and Velma Jenkins and had an older brother and sister. Conway was married three times. In 1953 he married Ellen Matthews and had one child, son Michael. They divorced the following year in 1954. In 1956 he married Maxine Jaco “Mickey”, the mother of his other three children. Those children are Kathy, Joni Lee and Jimmy. Conway and Mickey divorced in 1984 after twenty-eight years of marriage and in 1987 he married his receptionist, Delores Virginia “Dee” Henry who was eighteen years his junior. They were married until Conway’s death on June 5, 1993 in Springfield, Missouri of an abdominal aortic aneurysm. He was 59 years old.

Conway’s list of awards is remarkably short considering the fact that he was a country music legend who is still selling records today, well over two decades after his death. Here is a list of the awards he
