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
Sometimes I feel, sometimes I feel
Like I been tied to the whippin' post
Tied to the whippin' post, tied to the whippin' post
Good Lord, I feel like I'm dyin'
My friends told me, you've been such a fool
And I had to stand down and take it all baby, all because I love you
Drown myself in sorrow when I look at what you've done
But nothing seemed to change, the bad times stayed the same, and I can't run
Sometimes I feel, sometimes I feel
Like I 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 been tied to the whippin' post
Tied to the whippin' post, don't you know I tied to the whippin' post
Good Lord, I feel like I'm dyin'
