You dont know how bad I feel

The doctor says Im very ill

Hes feeding me little yellow pills for my heart

And its a shame, shame, shame



My temperatures a hundred and two

And the doctor dont think Im gonna pull through

But theres nothing he can do without you, girl

And its a shame, shame, shame

Oh its a shame, shame, shame



Im wasting away to nothing

And I aint got the will to try

But if you dont come home running, now

I swear Im gonna die

Its a doggone shame, oh yes it is



I said its a shame, shame, shame

Oh its a shame, shame, shame



Im wasting away to nothing

And I aint got the will to try

But if you dont come home running

I swear Im gonna die

Its a shame, shame



You know Im a hospital case

I lost all the colour from my face

Im gonna leave the human race

If you dont come home



its a shame, shame, shame

And its a shame, shame, shame

Its a doggone shame

Baby please come home



Its a shame, shame, shame, shame, shame

(I need them little yellow pills)

its a shame, shame, shame

(I need them little yellow pills)
