I was walking through the park
Just my shadow and myself
But the rustling in the trees
It was somebody else
So I got down on my knees
Beggin', Lordy, pity me
Take pity pretty please, don’t you break my heart
Pretty please, don't you break my heart
Please, take pity, pretty please
Well there was a Queen of Sheb'
And she went to Solomon
And she put him in her freeze
When he saw her frankincense
So he got down on his knees
Beggin’, Lordy, pity me
Please, take pity, pretty please, don't you break my heart
Pretty please don't you break my heart
Please, take pity, please
I won't be walkin' through no pines
Not my shadow nor my self
Ain't no rustlin' in no trees
Ain't nobody-body else
So I’ll get off of my knees
Thank the Lordy, mercy me
Have pity on me, please, won’t you break my heart
Pretty please, don't you break my heart
Please, have mercy on me
