Call me mister pitiful
Baby that's my name now
Call me mister pitiful
That's how I got my fame
But people just don't understand
What makes a man feel so blue
They call me mister pitiful
'Cause I lost someone just like you

They call me mister pitiful
This everybody knows now
They call me mister pitiful
Most every place I go
But nobody seems to understand
How can a man sing such a sad song ooh
When he lost everything
When he lost everything he had

How can I explain to you
When somebody has been so very blue
How can I tel you 'bout my past
And all the things won't end
