Five Long Years |
| Lord, have you ever been mistreated |
| Then you got to, you got to know just what I’m talking about |
| Yes, have you ever been mistreated |
| Then you got to, you got to know just what I’m talking about |
| Lord I work five long years for one woman |
| And she had the nerve to kick me out |
| I got a job at a steel mill |
| I’m shucking steel just like a slave |
| Five long years, every Friday y’all I went straight home yeah |
| I went straight home |
| Mistreated |
| Then you got to, you got to know just what I’m talking about |
| Lord I work five long years for one woman |
| And she had the nerve to kick me out |
| Lord but I finally learned a lesson |
| I should have known long time ago |
| The next woman I marry, she gotta have two jobs |
| And she gotta go out and work long and bring some dough |
| Lord, said I been mistreated |
| And you got to, you got to know just what I’m talking about |
| Lord I work five long years for one woman |
| And she had the nerve to kick me out |
| Have you ever been mistreated |
| Then you got to, you got to know just what I’m talking about |
| Yes, have you ever been mistreated |
| Then you got to, you got to know just what I’m talking about |
| Lord I work five long years for one woman |
| And she had the nerve to kick me out |
| I got a job at a steel mill |
| I’m shucking steel just like a slave |
| Five long years, every Friday yes yo’all I went straight home |
| I went straight home with all my pay |
| Yes, I’ve been mistreated |
| And you got to, you got to know just what I’m talking about |
| Lord I work five long years for one woman |
| And she had the nerve to kick me out |
| Lord I finally learned a lesson |
| I should have known a long time ago |
| The next woman I marry, she gotta have two jobs |
| And she gotta go out and work and bringing home some dough |
| I’ve been mistreated, yeah |
| And you, you know just what I’m talking about |
| I work five long years for one woman |
| And she had the nerves to kick me out |
