DON'T PITY ME
(Stuart / Oliver)


Joanie Sommers - 1966





(Don't pity me, baby, don't pity me)

Don't pity me, baby, don't pity me
Don't pity me just because he broke my heart in two
This hurt inside, baby, is just my pride
If I really loved him so, why would I run to you
Baby, can't you see
Now that I'm alone I can go out with you
And, baby I'll do anything you want me to

(Don't pity me, baby, don't pity me)

Don't pity me, baby, don't pity me
I was a fool and I'm so ashamed that I could die
These tears you see, baby, are not for me
I'm crying because I know how much I've hurt you so

(Don't pity me, ooohhh-ooohhh)

Please, please, please don't pity me, baby, don't pity me
I don't want you feeling sorry for me anymore
I'd give the world, baby, just to be your girl
If you would only love me like you did before

(Please don't pity me) 'Cause I need for you to love me
Be my love, won't you tell me that you love me
Till I die I promise that I'll always love you
I'll never, never, never, never, never, never run away again
Never, never, never, never, never, never run away again
(Never, never, never, never, never, never run away again)
