The Three Degrees · Liar (You've Been Cheatin' On Me) [1983]
How can you say
You love me and then react this way
You were my dream
You made me feel like a beauty queen
I saw you kissin' her the way you kissed me
And that was all that I needed to see
Your lies are gonna get you
Liar, you've been cheatin' on me
Liar, caught you with my best friend
Liar, you've been deceivin' me
Liar----
Your smooth talkin' ways
You made me believe every word you say
I haven't a clue
You were doin' me wrong than I ever knew
How could anyone as rotten as you?
(you, hoo)
I checked the promise that you'll ever be true
Your lies are gonna get you
Liar, you've been cheatin' on me
Liar, caught you with my best friend
Liar, you've been deceivin' me
Liar----
Liar, you've been cheatin' on me
Liar, caught you with my best friend
Liar, you've been deceivin' me
Liar----
I feel so ashamed
There's nothing you can do to repair the pain
I'm livin' a lie
How can I hold my head up high?
You've got to realize that this is the end
'Cause you've lost me my true best friend
Your lies have finally caught you
Liar, you've been cheatin' on me
Liar, caught you with my best friend
Liar, you've been deceivin' me
Liar----
Liar, you've been cheatin' on me
Liar, caught you with my best friend
Liar, you've been deceivin' me
Liar, liar, liar, liar
Liar, you've been cheatin' on me
Liar, 'cause I've caught you with my best friend
Liar, you've been deceivin' me
Liar----
'Cause you're a liar
