Well I lay my head on the railroad track   Waiting on the Double E   But the train don't run by here no more   Poor poor pitiful me      Poor poor pitiful me   Poor poor pitiful me   Oh these boys won't let me be   Lord have mercy on me   Woe woe is me      Well I met a man out in Hollywood   Now I ain't naming names   Well he really worked me over good   Just like Jesse James   Yes he really worked me over good   He was a credit to his gender   Put me through some changes Lord   Sort of like a Waring blender      Poor poor pitiful me   Poor poor pitiful me   Oh these boys won't let me be   Lord have mercy on me   Woe woe is me      Well I met a boy in the Vieux Carres   Down in Yokohama   He picked me up and he threw me down   He said "Please don't hurt me Mama"      Poor poor pitiful me   Poor poor pitiful me   Oh these boys won't let me be   Lord have mercy on me   Woe woe is me      Poor poor poor me   Poor poor pitiful me   Poor poor poor me   Poor poor pitiful me   Poor poor poor me   Poor poor pitiful me
