B.b. King - Five Long Years lyrics

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.
