Lyrics A Soul That's Been Abused - Hubert Sumlin

A Soul That's Been Abused

You can treat me dirty
You can treat me cruel
It doesn’t really matter
I was still your loving fool
'Cause baby, oh baby
You really didn’t know what you were doing
I know you didn’t mean to hurt me, baby
I’m only sorry to see our good love in ruin
Time heals all wounds
That’s what the people say
But for all your wrong doings
Someday you’ll have to pay
'Cause baby, oh baby
I know you were confused
Still after all we’ve been through
You still stand accused from a soul that’s been abused
I’ll forgive you, baby
I’ll forgive but not forget
Sometimes I get angry at myself
I wish we had never met
You didn’t understand
Then let me feel like a man
So sorry we both must lose
See that’s why you’ll find me
Somewhere in this world singing these blues
You can treat me dirty
You can treat me cruel
It doesn’t really matter
I was still your loving fool
Because baby, oh baby
You really didn’t know what you were doing
I know you didn’t mean to hurt me, baby
I’m only sorry to our good love in ruin
Said I’m sorry
Oh Lord, said I’m sorry
It’s a sad day, when true love ends
It’s a sad day, It’s a sad day
When the hatred wins
Lord knows
Said I’m sorry, sorry
Lord, Lord, knows I’m sorry
So sorry, sorry
