Lyrics

Woke up this mornin'
Feeling low
Where my love one used to live
She ain't there no more
Poor me, why such bad luck fall on me?
Poor me, I'm livin' in misery
What I'm gonna do?
Hard to tell
Lord, I'm not gonna kill myself
But I might as well
Poor me, I'm so lonely can't you see?
Poor me, I'm livin' in misery
All I do
The whole day long
Fall down on my knees and pray
You'll come back home
Poor me, why such bad luck fall on me?
Poor me, I'm livin' in misery
Written by: Dave Bartholomew, Fats Domino
