Poor Me

Poor Me - Charley Patton

Yes on me

It's poor me

You must take pity on poor me

I ain't got nobody

Take pity on poor me

You may go

You may stay

But she'll come back some sweet day

By and by sweet mama by and by

Don't the moon look pretty

Shinin' down through the tree

Oh I can see Bertha Lee

Lord but she can't see me

You may go

You may stay

But she'll come back some sweet day

By and by sweet mama

Baby won't you by and by

You may go you may stay

But she'll come back some sweet day

By and by

Sweet mama by and by

Yes on me poor me

You must have pity on poor me

I ain't got nobody

Take pity on poor me

Don't the moon look pretty

Shinin' down through the tree

Oh I can see Bertha Lee

But she can't see me

You may go

You may stay

But she'll come back some sweet day

By and by

Sweet mama

Oh baby won't you by and by
