Lyrics

Cheating

Cheating

I know you've been

Cheating

Oh, yes you have

Cheating

Down on me, girl

And now you want me back

Cheating

Right down on me

Cheating

When I wasn't looking, girl

Cheating

Oh, yes I know it

And now you want me back

Hey

Alright

Once you told me you loved me

And I believed it true

But it's been two years since I last saw you

Now something tells me you ain't been true

You have been

Cheating

Oh, yes you've been

Cheating

Down on me, girl

Cheating

I believed you

And now you want me back

I had faith and I waited

Maybe just a little too long

Now I'm drawing on my pension, yeah

Something must have been wrong

I think you've been

Cheating

Oh, I know you've been

Cheating

Down on me girl, now

Cheating

Oh, yes you've been

And now you want me back

Oh, no no no no

Cheating

You've been cheating, yeah

Cheating

I know you've been now, now

Cheating

Oh, yeah now

Cheating

You been cheating on me, girl

Cheating
