[Intro]
Oh pitiful
Feel so sorry for me
Pitiful
It's pitiful
Feel so sorry for me
Though you do not love me you see
You still won't set me free
Oh set me free

[Verse]
I wonder why I wondered why you do me like you do
I wonder why you do me like you do
When you know that I love you baby
And you know I wouldn't do it to you
No no
It looks like it makes you happy
Just to see me cry
Please have mercy on this
Vacant heart of mine
You're trying to see how mean you can be
I would do my dog better that the way you do me

[Outro ]
Pitiful
Feel so sorry for myself
Pitiful
Feel so sorry for myself
When you know that you don't want me baby
But you ain't gonna let me have nobody else now are ya
