There are two artists named Dion, one is Dion Francis DiMucci, the other is John Kerssies, a dutch hiphop producer. Dion Francis DiMucci (b July 18, 1939), better known as Dion, is an American singer-songwriter, now widely recognized as one of the top singers of his era, blending the best elements of doo-wop, pop, and R&B styles. Early years Dion was born to an Italian-American family in the Bronx borough of New York City. As a child, he used to accompany his father, a vaudeville entertainer, on tour, and developed a love of country music â€“ particularly Hank Williams â€“ and the blues and doo-wop stars he heard in local bars and on the radio. His singing abilities were honed on the street corners of Crotona Avenue, where he rounded up other local singers inventing acapella licks, and in local clubs.

(pity

pity

ahh, ahh, ooh)

Pity my arms for losing you
Pity my dreams that wont come true
But don't (don't), don't pity me

Pity my heart that's gonna break (dow, dow, dow)
Pity my kiss that you won't take
But don't (don't), don't pity me

Pity from others I have plenty of
But darlin', from you I want love

Pity the love I'll throw away (dow, dow, dow)
Till you return to me some day
But don't (don't), don't pity me

Pity from others I have plenty of
But darlin', from you I want love

Pity the love I'll throw away (dow, dow, dow)
Till you return to me some day
But don't (don't), don't pity me

(don't, don't) pity me
FADE
(don't, don't) don't pity me
