I've been mistreated,
I've been abused.
I've been struck downhearted, baby,
I've been confused.
'Cause I know,
Yes, I know,
I've been mistreated.
Since my baby left me
I've been losing my mind.
I've been lonely,
Baby, I've been cold.
I've been looking for a woman
To have and hold.
'Cause I know, oh baby you know
I've been mistreated.
Since my baby left me
I've been losing, losing,
Baby, I've been losing my mind, losing my mind.
(Solo)
I've been mistreated,
I've been abused.
I've been looking for a woman, a woman, a woman,
Baby, I've been confused.
'Cause I know, yes, oh baby I know
I've been mistreated.
Since my baby left me
I've been losing, losing,
Babe, I've been losing my mind, losing.
I've been losing my mind...
Baby, oh yeah, I've been losing my mind.
