Five long years for a woman
I tell you I worked, I worked
Trucking steel like a slave
Five long years for a woman
You know I got a job at a steel mill
Oh, you know just what I'm talking about
If you ever been mistreated people
If you ever been mistreated people
But you know, I finally learned a lesson
And she had the nerve to put me out
I went straight home with all of my pay
I tell you I worked, I worked
Then you know just what I'm talking about
Then you know just what I'm talking about
And she had the nerve to put me out
If you ever been mistreated people
The next woman that I marry
Five long years every Friday
She got to work and bring in the dough
I tell you I worked, I worked
A long, long time ago
She had the nerve
Five long years for a woman
