Five Long Years

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.
