[Intro]
Okay, here's one more song. Here's one you might remember. I hope I do. You never know

[Verse 1]
I lay my head on the railroad tracks
And wait for the Double "E"
The railroad don't run no more
Poor, poor pitiful me

[Chorus]
Poor, poor pitiful me
Poor, poor pitiful me
These young girls won't let me be
Lord have mercy on me
Woe is me

[Verse 2]
I met a girl in West Hollywood
Huh, I ain't naming names
She really worked me over good
She was just like Jеsse James
She rеally worked me over good
She was a credit to her gender
She put me through some changes, Lord
Sort of like a Waring blender

[Chorus]
Poor, poor pitiful me
Poor, poor pitiful me
These young girls won't let me be
Lord have mercy on me
Woe is me
Woo!

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
I met a girl from the Vieux Carré
Down in Yokahama
She picked me up and she throwed me down
I said, "Please don't hurt me, mama"

[Chorus]
Poor, poor pitiful me
Poor, poor pitiful me
These young girls won't let me be
Lord have mercy on me
Woe is me
