(George Jones - George Riddle)

(Have pity on me please, oh, won't you lonesome life.)

Let's end it now, oh, lonesome life this heartaches
I'm tired inside and this old heart could use a rest
It might as well stop beatin' as far as she's concerned
Inside I know there's not a chance that she'll return.

Rid yourself of me I beg old lonesome life
And free me from all memories of her tonight
Unchain my heart and let the world turn out the light
Have pity on me please, oh, won't you lonesome life.

(Have pity on my please, oh, won't you lonesome life.)

Oh, lonesome life I've been through many things with you
Like sleepless nights and broken dreams and love untrue
You know I've served my purpose so let's do what's right
And let me go from you I plead, oh, lonesome life.

If you tell from me I can't go on in life
And dreaming from all memories of her tonight
Unchain my heart and left the world turn out the light
Have pity on me please, oh, won't you lonesome life.

(Have pity on me please, oh, won't you lonesome life...)
