Janey Street - Mistreated --------------------------------------------------
Mistreated by Janey Street
Typical morning Toast and marmalade Cup of black coffee Another brand new same old day A knock at my door It was a Census Man I was fumbling with my role He wanted to know who I am I said they call me Mistreated
Take a look around Teardrops everywhere Check up the bedroom Ain't no man in there You're good with figures so end it all, all Read the bottom line Having a tag ain't enough? You can call me Mistreated Mistreated, so mistreated I've been mistreated by the man I love
An April day Mister, I've just been used Just like old folk Talk on this lonely avenue Little by little I sure lost in life But only thing you left me Is this sad name I've got
You can call me Mistreated Mistreated, so mistreated I've been mistreated by the man I love
(solo)
Ten years from now When you call back then I'll be Mrs. Somebody You can write that down Now you can call me Mistreated So so Mistreated Hey, Mr. Census man You can call me Mistreated I'll be Mrs. Somebody someday.
