I've been run down

And I've been lied to

And I don't know why

I let that mean woman

Make me a fool

She took all my money

Wrecked my new car

Now she's with one of my good-time buddies

They're drinkin' in some crosstown bar

Sometimes I feel

Sometimes I feel like I've been tied to the whippin' post

Tied to the whippin' post, tied to the whippin' post

Good lord, I feel like I'm dyin'

Sometimes I feel

Sometimes I feel like I've been tied to the whippin' post

Tied to the whippin' post, tied to the whippin' post

Oh sometimes

Oh sometimes

Oh sometimes

Oh don't you know that I feel

Oh I'm dyin'
