(Warren Zevon)
|
I'd lay my head on the railroad tracks
|
And wait for the Double "E"
|
But the railroad don't run no more
|
Poor, poor pitiful me
|
|
Poor, poor pitiful me
|
Poor, poor pitiful me
|
These young girls won't let me be
|
Lord have mercy on me
|
Woe is me
|
|
Well, I met a girl in West Hollywood
|
I ain't naming names
|
She really worked me over good
|
She was just like Jesse James
|
She really worked me over good
|
She was a credit to her gender
|
She put me through some changes, Lord
|
Sort of like a Waring blender
|
|
Poor, poor pitiful me
|
Poor, poor pitiful me
|
These young girls won't let me be
|
Lord have mercy on me
|
Woe is me
|
|
Well, I met a girl at the Rainbow Bar
|
She asked me if I'd beat her
|
She took me back to the Hyatt House
|
I don't want to talk about it
|
|
Poor, poor pitiful me
|
Poor, poor pitiful me
|
These young girls won't let me be
|
Lord have mercy on me
|
Woe is me
|
|
I met a girl from the Vieux Carre`
|
Down in Yokahama
|
She picked me up and she'd throw me down
|
I said, "Where's George Gruel, my road manger and best friend"
|
"Come on out here George..."
|
Get up and dance
|
Get up and dance or I'll kill you and I got the means
|
