I Hate Myself 1934

Dr. Pitt-Payne in London UK - 06 Jun 2002

Feelin' low and so forlorn,
if you don't come back,
I know I won't last long!
Worried so; my spirits gone.
How can I feel right
and know I've done you wrong?

Oh, I hate myself for being so mean to you;
I just hate myself for being so mean to you.
Like an eenie meenie minie mo,
I broke your heart and I let you go;
I hate myself for being so mean to you!
I could bite my tongue
for saying the things I said;
I could slap my face
for saying the things I said.
Gonna send myself a telegram,
and tell myself what a fool I am,
I hate myself for saying the things I said!
Oh, baby, do come back;
if you come back, I'll never make you cry.
Stay away another day,
and I'll kiss myself goodbye!
Gonna hide myself
way down in the deep, deep blue,
'Cause I hate myself
for being so mean to you.

Oh, I hate myself for being so mean to you;
I just hate myself for being so mean to you.
Like an eenie meenie minie mo,
I broke your heart and I let you go;
I hate myself for being so mean to you!
I could bite my tongue
for saying the things I said;
I could slap my face
for saying the things I said.
Gonna send myself a telegram,
and tell myself what a fool I am,
I hate myself for saying the things I said!
Oh, baby, do come back;
if you come back, I'll never make you cry.
Stay away another day,
and I'll kiss myself goodbye!
Gonna hide myself
way down in the deep, deep blue,
'Cause I hate myself
for being so mean to you.

Sad am I, ain't that a shame?
Like a weepin' willow weepin' in the rain.
Mad am I, know I'm to blame,
Got a guilty conscience driving me insane!

Oh, I hate myself for being so mean to you;
I just hate myself for being so mean to you.
Like an eenie meenie minie mo,
I broke your heart and I let you go;
I hate myself for being so mean to you!
I could bite my tongue
for saying the things I said;
I could slap my face
for saying the things I said.
Gonna send myself a telegram,
and tell myself what a fool I am,
I hate myself for saying the things I said!
Oh, baby, do come back;
if you come back, I'll never make you cry.
Stay away another day,
and I'll kiss myself goodbye!
Gonna hide myself
way down in the deep, deep blue,
'Cause I hate myself
for being so mean to you.

Oh, I hate myself for being so mean to you;
I just hate myself for being so mean to you.
Like an eenie meenie minie mo,
I broke your heart and I let you go;
I hate myself for being so mean to you!
I could bite my tongue
for saying the things I said;
I could slap my face
for saying the things I said.
Gonna send myself a telegram,
and tell myself what a fool I am,
I hate myself for saying the things I said!
Oh, baby, do come back;
if you come back, I'll never make you cry.
Stay away another day,
and I'll kiss myself goodbye!
Gonna hide myself
way down in the deep, deep blue,
'Cause I hate myself
for being so mean to you.
