Lyrics

I’ve been cheat ed,

been mis treat ed;

when will I

be loved?

I’ve been (Bb)pushed down,

I’ve been (Bb)pushed ’round;

when will (Bb)I

be loved?

When I find my (C)new man

that I want for (F)mine,

he (Bb)al ways breaks my (C)heart in two; it (Dm)hap pens ev ’ry time.

I’ve been (Bb)made blue,

I’ve been (Bb)lied to;

when will (Bb)I

be loved?

When I find my (C)new man

that I want for (F)mine,

he (Bb)al ways breaks my (C)heart in two; it (Dm)hap pens ev ’ry time.

I’ve been (Bb)cheat ed,

been mis (Bb)treat ed;

when will (Bb)I

be loved?

When will (Bb)I

be loved?

(C)Tell me, when will (Bb)I (C)be (Bb)loved?
