Five Long Years


(Eddie Boyd)

Well, have you ever been mistreated?
D'you know what I'm talking about?
Well, have you ever been mistreated?
D'you know what I'm talking about?
I worked five long years for one girl,
She had the nerve to put me out

Got a job in a steel mill,
Shucking steel like a slave
Five days and every Friday, I work and bring home my pay
If you've ever been mistreated,
D'you know what I'm talking about?
Well, I worked five long years for one girl,
She had the nerve to put me out

I finally learned my lesson, should a long time ago
The next little girl that I marry,
She work and bring me some gold
If you've ever been mistreated,
D'you know what I'm talking about?
Well, I worked five long years for one girl,
She had the nerve to put me out

I finally learned my lesson, should a long time ago
The next little girl that I marry,
She work and bring me some gold
If you've ever been mistreated,
D'you know what I'm talking about?
Well, I worked five long years for one girl,
She had the nerve,
She had the nerve,
She had the nerve,
She had the nerve to put me out
