The Lord Mistreats Me

Well I woke up this morning

found a note tied to my bed

baby’s gone and left me,

oh that’s what she said

and the fire’s gone

I swear the lord mistreat me

and the devil done did me wrong

it’s hot as hell in the summer

but all I feel is rain

she bought herself a ticket

all on down the train

oh it’s a lonesome song

I swear the lord mistreats me

and the devil done did me wrong

girls will be girls and

boys will be boys

I just want to drink a bottle of wine

go to town and make some noise

and the fires gone

I swear the lord mistreats me

and the devil done did me wrong
