===Background===
Another hit cover version of the song was recorded by Canadian [[country music|country]] singer [[Terri Clark]]. It was released in September 1996 as the lead single from her second album, 1996's ''[[Just the Same]]''. Clark told ''[[Billboard magazine]]'' that she heard [[Linda Ronstadt]]'s version of the song in a local gymnasium while she was exercising. She said "and I thought, what a cool song. What a great country record that could make. I started doing it live, and it worked."<ref>''[[Billboard magazine|Billboard]]'', October 5, 1996</ref>

===Reception===
"Poor Poor Pitiful Me" debuted at number 47 on the U.S. ''Billboard'' Hot Country Singles & Tracks for the week of October 12, 1996. Clark's version was a number one hit on the Canadian ''RPM'' country charts, and a number five hit on the country charts in the U.S.

===Music video===
The music video was directed by [[Deaton Flanigen]] and premiered in late 1996. It comprises black-and-white tour footage interspersed with Clark being approached by a series of men while her car is being fixed at a full service gas station. Eventually, she realizes the man fixing her car is the one for her. She starts to drive off, before calling him over to get in. The two drive off together, leaving the other two co-workers at the shop surprised.
