Five Long Years

If you ever been mistreated, then you know just what I’m talking about
If you ever been mistreated people, you know just what I’m talking about
I tell you I worked, I worked five long years for a woman
And she had the nerve to put me out
You know I got a job in a steel mill, trucking steel like a slave
Five long years, every Friday I went straight home with all of my pay
If you ever been mistreated people then you know just what I’m talking about
I tell you I worked, I worked five long years for a woman
And she had the nerve to put me out
But you know, I finally learned a lesson, a long, long time ago
The next woman that I marry, she gotta work and bring in the dough
If you been mistreated people then you know just what I’m talking about
I tell you I worked, I worked five long years for a woman
She had the nerve, she had the nerve to put me out
