A Soul That’s Been Abused

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 1]
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

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 3]
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
