Please don't you leave me,

With no one to love
Though I've looked everywhere
And I can't find me anybody to love,
To feel my care.”

“You call me Mr. Pitiful;
Baby that's my name now, oh.
They call me Mr. Pitiful;
That's how I got my fame.
But people just don`t understand, now
What makes a man feel so blue, now
Ooh, they call me Mr. Pitiful;
Cause I lost someone just like you, now.”
