Five Long Years - B.B.King |
If you ever been mistreated,
then you know just what I'm talking about.
If you ever been mistreated people,
you know just what I'm talking about.
I tell you I worked,
I worked five long years for a woman,
and she had the nerve to put me out.
You know I got a job in a steel mill,
trucking steel like a slave.
Five long years,
every Friday I 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 worked five 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 marry,
she gotta work and bring in the dough.
If you been mistreated people
then you know just what I'm talking about.
I tell you I worked,
I worked five long years for a woman,
she had the nerve,
she had the nerve to put me out.
