Aretha Franklin - Pitiful

Oh pitiful
Pitiful
Feel so sorry for me
Pitiful
It's pitiful
Feel so sorry for me
Though you don't love me, you say
You still won't set me free
Oh, set me free

I wonder why, I wonder why
I wondered why you do me like you do
Oh yes, I do
I wonder, I wonder, I wonder, I wonder, wonder why
Why you do me like you do, oh yeah
When you know that I love you, baby
And you know I wouldn't do it to you
No, no

It looks like it makes you happy
Just to see me cryin'
Please have mercy on this
Vacant heart of mine
Looks like you're trying to see
Just how mean you can be
Well, listen, I would do my dog
Any better than the way you do me

Oh, pitiful
I'm pitiful
Feel sorry for myself
Pitiful
Pitiful
Feel so sorry for myself
When you know that you don't want me, baby
But you ain't gonna let me have nobody else
Come on and tell me the truth now
Yes, I could go

I'm so pitiful
Yeah, I'm pitiful
Pitiful
Feeling sorry
Feeling sorry for myself
