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

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

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
