I've Been Mistreated and I Don't Like It

I've Been Mistreated and I Don't Like It - Bessie Smith

Oh there is somethin' I can't understand

Why a good woman gets a no-good man

I'm gonna leave here and the time ain't long

Because my man has done me wrong

I've been mistreated and I don't like it

There's no use to say I do

I've been mistreated and I don't like it

So I must tell to you

Once upon a time I stood for all he did

Those days are gone believe me kid

I've been mistreated and I don't like it

There's no use to say I do

Once upon a time I stood for all he did

Those days are gone may believe me

I've been mistreated and I don't like it Lord

No use to say I do I mean

No use to say I do
