POOR ME
(Dave Bartholomew / Antoine Domino)
Fats Domino - 1958


Woke up this mornin'
Feelin' low
Where my loved one used to live
She ain't there no more
Poor me
Why's that bad luck fall on me
Poor me
I'm livin' in misery

What I'm gonna do
Is hard to tell
I'm not gonna kill myself
Though I might as well
Poor me
Why's that bad luck fall on me
Poor me
I'm livin' in misery

All I do
All day long
Fall down on my knees and pray
She'll come back home
Poor me
Why's that bad luck fall on me
Poor me
I'm livin' in misery

(Instrumental Break)

All I do
All day long
Fall down on my knees and pray
She'll come back home
Poor me
Why's that bad luck fall on me
Poor me
I'm livin' in misery
