They call me Mr. Pitiful
Baby that's my name now
They call me Mr. Pitiful that's how I got my fame

But people just don't seem to understand
How someone can feel so blue
They call me Mr Pitiful cause I lost someone just like you.

The call me Mr. Pitiful
This everybody know now
They call me Mr. Pitiful Most every place I go.

But nobody seems to understand now,
How can a man sing such a sad song
When he lost everything that he had.

How can I explain to you
How somebody con get so very blue
How can I tell you about my past
If all things won't end.

Mr Pitiful
That's my name now
They call me Mr. Pitiful that's how I got my fame

But nobody seems to understand
What make a man can feel so very blue
They call me Mr. Pitiful cause I m in love with you

Can I explain to you
Everything is going wrong
I've lost everything I had
I have to sing this sad song
To get back to her
And I m gonna sing this song to you
And I want you
And I want you
And I want you
And I want you
[And I want to tell you everything is going through my mind]
And I want to sing
And I want to sing
And I want to sing
And I want to sing this song with you
[And I want to sing this song to everyone]
Cause I want them to understand what I talkin' about
I want you to understand what I'm sayin
