Cheated

[Verse 1]

No one could tell me

That you were right for me, girl

You coulda told me

To run a lap around the world

[Pre-Chorus]

All that time I was hypnotized

While you—"ahh"—behind my back

Now my mind keeps me up all night

Why'd you have to say, "bye," like that?

[Chorus]

I shoulda cheated on you (Ah-ooh)

I was everything you wanted and more

I shoulda cheated on you (Ah-ooh)

Nobody told me I was dating a whore

I shoulda cheated, cheated, cheated

I shoulda cheated, cheated, cheated

I shoulda cheated, cheated, cheated

I shoulda cheated, cheated, cheated

[Verse 2]

My friends shoulda told me

You weren't the one for me, girl (You weren't the one for me, girl)

'Cause you almost sold me

I bought a rock for you, girl (I bought a rock)

[Pre-Chorus]

All that time I was hypnotized

While you—"ahh"—behind my back

Now my mind keeps me up all night

Why'd you have to say, "bye," like that?

[Chorus]

I shoulda cheated on you (Ah-ooh)

I was everything you wanted and more

I shoulda cheated on you (Ah-ooh)

Nobody told me I was dating a whore

I shoulda cheated, cheated, cheated

I shoulda cheated, cheated, cheated

I shoulda cheated, cheated, cheated

I shoulda cheated, cheated, cheated

I shoulda cheated (Ah-ooh)

[Bridge]

Liar, liar

Hey, girl

You gon' tell all your friends that I'm talkin' about you

I'm talkin' about you

You gon' tell, you gon' tell

All your friends that I'm talkin' about you

I'm talkin' about you

I'm talkin' about you

Carolyne Stevens, this song is for you

[Chorus]

I shoulda cheated on you (Ah-ooh)

I was everything you wanted and more

I shoulda cheated on you (Ah-ooh)

Nobody told me I was dating a whore

I shoulda cheated, cheated, cheated

I shoulda cheated, cheated, cheated

I shoulda cheated, cheated, cheated

I shoulda cheated, cheated, cheated

I shoulda cheated on you
