whipping post

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
Wrecked my new car
Now she's with one of my good-time buddies
They're drinkin' in some crosstown bar
Sometimes I feel
Sometimes I feel like I've 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 tell me
That I've seen such a fool
And I have to atand by and take it baby
All for lovin' you
Drown myself in sorrow
As I look at what you've done
But nothin' seems to change
The bad times stay the same
And I can't run
Sometimes I feel
Sometimes I feel like I've been tied the whippin' post
