A Soul That's Been Abused - Hubert Sumlin

You can treat me dirty

You can treat me cruel

It doesn’t really matter

I was still your loving fool

'Cause baby, oh baby

You really didn’t know what you were doing

I know you didn’t mean to hurt me, baby

I’m only sorry to see our good love in ruin

Time heals all wounds

That’s what the people say

But for all your wrong doings

Someday you’ll have to pay

'Cause baby, oh baby

I know you were confused

Still after all we’ve been through

You still stand accused from a soul that’s been abused

I’ll forgive you, baby

I’ll forgive but not forget

Sometimes I get angry at myself

I wish we had never met

You didn’t understand

Then let me feel like a man

So sorry we both must lose

See that’s why you’ll find me

Somewhere in this world singing these blues

You can treat me dirty

You can treat me cruel

It doesn’t really matter

I was still your loving fool

Because baby, oh baby

You really didn’t know what you were doing

I know you didn’t mean to hurt me, baby

I’m only sorry to our good love in ruin

Said I’m sorry

Oh Lord, said I’m sorry

It’s a sad day, when true love ends

It’s a sad day, It’s a sad day

When the hatred wins

Lord knows

Said I’m sorry, sorry

Lord, Lord, knows I’m sorry

So sorry, sorry
