This Time I Won't Cheat On Her Again
Moe Bandy · I Just Started Hatin' Cheatin' Songs (GRC) [1974]
I hear that you just told you new forever where to go
They say you left him lookin' for his mind
And I hear that you've been askin' all the friends we used to know
If I might be persuaded one more time.
This time I won't cheat on her again
Why can't you be satisfied just knowin' that I did
Even though we've been as close together as we've been
This time I won't cheat on her again.
--- Instrumental ---
I know that lovin' you would only lead to losin' her
She'll be here to love me when you're gone
After her forgivin' me with tears and tender words
I won't let her be our steppin' stone.
This time I wont' cheat on her again
Why can't you be satisfied just knowin' that I did
Even though we've been as close together as we've been
This time I won't cheat on her again.
This time I won't cheat on her again...
