Poor Poor Pitiful Me
Warren Zevon; Linda Ronstadt 1976
  (Fine Tune 157)   Shauna Kaaria
 
two columns

OPENER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face, grand square
I lay my head on the railroad track
Waiting on the Double E
But the train don't run thru here no more
Poor, poor pitiful me

Allemande left and weave
Poor, poor, poor me; Poor, poor pitiful me
All these boys won't let me be; Lord, have mercy on me


FIGURE    Mainstream, corner progression

Heads (sides) promenade, take it half you know
Sides (heads) do a right & left thru
Sides (heads) square thru take it four hands round
Then do an eight chain four
Poor, poor, poor me
Swing your corner promenade
All these boys won't let me be
Lord, have mercy on me


MIDDLE BREAK    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face, grand square
Well, I met a man out in Hollywood
And I ain't namin' names
But he really worked me over good
Just like Jesse James

Allemande left and weave
Yes, he really worked me over good, he was a credit to his gender
He put me through some changes Lord, sorta like a Waring blender


CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face, grand square
I met a boy in the Vieux-Carres
Down in Yokohama
He picked me up, and he threw me down
Saying "Please don't hurt me Mama"

Allemande left and weave
Poor, poor, poor me; Poor, poor pitiful me
All these boys won't let me be; Lord, have mercy on me

Woe, woe is me
