[Verse 1]
I'm alone in misery, I couldn't find nobody to love for me,
I've been hurt and I've been scorned
and had no lovin' since you've been gone.
 
[Chorus 1]
Misery, oh,   misery, you're killing me.
 
[Verse 2]
Oh, mama, no, I said I wouldn't fall in love no more
since I've lost everything I had
my heart is broken and I'm feeling so sad.
 
[Chorus 1]
Misery, oh,   misery, you're killing me.
 
[Bridge]
  Day and night I pace the floor, hoping I'll be happy once more.
My life's is up and it's such a shame
I lost my girl and have no one to blame.
 
[Chorus 2]
Now, now, misery, oh,   misery, it's killing me.
     |
 
[Verse 3]
I said a long, long ago, I said I wouldn't fall in love no more;
since I lost everything I had, my heart's broken and I'm feeling so sad.
 
[End-Chorus]
Now, now, misery, oh,   misery, it's killing me.
Now, now, misery, oh,   misery, it's killing me.
 
[Outro]
Get away, get away, get away, you're killing me.
Get away, get away, get away, oh, you're killing me,
you're killing me.
