They call me Miss Pitiful
Ooh, baby that's my name now
Hey, they call me Miss Pitiful
That's how I got my fame
Ooh, but nobody seems to understand
What makes a woman feel so blue now
Ooh, they call me Miss, Miss Pitiful
'Cause I lost someone just like you now
Hey, they call me Miss Pitiful
Ooh, I think everybody knows now
Hey, they call me Miss Pitiful
Most every place I go
Ooh, but nobody seems to understand
What makes a woman sing such a sad, sad song now
When you've lost everything now, lost everything that you had, now
Ooh, ooh, yeah, yeah, ooh, yeah
Ooh, they call me the pitiful girl now
How, how can I explain to you baby
When you're feeling so very, very blue?
How can I tell you, tell you about my past, baby?
Ooh, they call me Miss Pitiful
Baby, that's my name now
Hey, they call me Miss Pitiful
That's how I got my fame
Ooh, nobody seems to understand
What makes a woman sing such a sad, sad song
When you've lost everything now, everything you had now
Ooh, they call me Miss Pitiful
Ooh, I'm a sad, sad, sad, sad girl now
How can I explain to you baby
When I've been so very, very blue now?
Ooh, I'm a pitiful girl
