(originally by Barrett Strong)
I'm alone in misery
I couldn't find nobody to love for me
I've been hurt and I've been scorned
And had no loving since you've been gone
Misery, oh misery
You're killing me
Oh, mama no
I said I wouldn't fall in love no more
Now since I've lost everything I had
My hearts broken and I'm feeling so sad
Misery, oh this misery
It's killing me
Day and night I pace the floor
Hoping I'll be happy once more
My life's an up, and it's such a shame
I lost my girl, and have no one to blame
Now now, misery
Oh, this misery
It's killing me
I said a long, long ago
I said I wouldn't fall in love no more
Now since I lost everything I had
My heart's broken and I'm feeling so sad
No no, misery
Oh, misery
You're killing me
No no, misery
Oh, misery
You're killing me
Get away, get away, get away
You're killing me
Get away, get away, get away
You're killing me
Oh, misery you're killing me
