[Intro]
This is a song for all of you, like me, who bear grudges
Uh, resentment
"Five Long Years"
One

[Chorus]
Have you ever been mistreated?
You know just what I'm talking about
Have you ever been mistreated?
You know just what I'm talking about
I worked five long years for one woman
She had the nerve to put me out

[Verse 1]
I got a job in a steel mill
Shucking steel just like a slave
Five long years, every Friday
I come straight home with all my pay

[Chorus]
Have you ever been mistreated?
You know just what I'm talking about
I workеd five long years for one woman
Shе had the nerve to put me out
[Verse 2]
I finally learned my lesson
Should have long time ago
The next woman that I marry
She's gonna have to work and bring me the dough

[Chorus]
Have you ever been mistreated?
You know just what I'm talking about
I worked five long years for one woman
She had the nerve
She had the nerve
She had the nerve
She had the nerve to put me out
