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 |
