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, wrecks my new car. Now she's with one of my good time buddies, They're drinkin' in some cross-town bar.
[Chorus:] Sometimes I feel, sometimes I feel, Like I been tied to the whipping post. Tied to the whipping post, tied to the whipping post. Good Lord, I feel like I'm dyin'.
My friends tell me, that I've been such a fool. And I had to stand by and take it baby, all for lovin' you. I drown myself in sorrow as I look at what you've done. But nothing seemed to change, the bad times stayed the same, And I can't run.
