5.Five Long Years
Lyrics:Eddie Boyd
Music:Eddie Boyd
Have you ever been mistreated? You know just what I'm talking
about.
Have you ever been mistreated? You know just what I'm talking
about.
I worked five long years for one woman, she had the nerve to put
me out.
I got a job in a steel mill, shucking steel like a slave.
Five long years, every Friday I come straight back home with all
my pay.
Have you ever been mistreated? You know just what I'm talking
about.
I worked five long years for one woman, she had the nerve to put
me out.
I finally learned my lesson, should a long time ago.
The next woman that I marry, she gonna work and bring me the
dough.
Have you ever been mistreated? You know just what I'm talking
about.
I worked five long years for one woman, she had the nerve,
She had the nerve,
She had the nerve,
She had the nerve to put me out.
