If you ever been mistreated

Then you know just what

I'm talking about

If you ever been mistreated people

Oh you know just what

I'm talking about

I tell you

I worked

I workedFive long years for a woman

And she had the nerve to put me out

You know I got a job at a steel mill

Trucking steel like a slave

Five long years every

FridayI 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 workedFive 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 marryShe got to work and bring in the dough

If you ever been mistreated people

Then you know just what

I'm talking about

I tell you

I worked

I workedFive long years for a woman

She had the nerve

She had the nerve to put me out
