cheatin' man

honey i'm a good man

but i'm a cheatin' man

and i'll do all i can

to get a lady's love

and i wanna doo right

i don't wanna hurt nobody

if i slip well then i'm sorry

yes i am

when i was a young boy

i use to watch my daddy play

and in my heart i'd always say

he was wrong

he had to be crazy

knocked stoned cold out of his mind

to be leaving my pretty momma all alone

she'd always sit patient and waitin' then cussin' and cryin'

and who would have to be there to comfort her

and i would have to look my momma

right square in her eyes

and i swear that i would never hurt no one like that

baby i'm a good man

but i'm a cheatin' man

and i'll do all i can

to get a lady's love

and i wanna do right

and i don't wanna hurt nobody

if i slip well then i'm sorry

yes i am

now that i'm older

i've found it's time to settle down

because i need some love around to make me whole

but something is funny

cos things i swore i'd never do

i find myself falling a victim to losin' total control

oh yea

cos recently

i ran into

someone that reminds me of you

and even though i know that kind of thing ain't right

i'm finding myself caught up in lies

tryin' to swim against the tide

and as the stage gets set for drama

i can't stop thinkin' about my momma

oooooo

i'm a cheatin' man

and i'll do all i can

to get a lady's love

and i wanna do right

and i don't wanna hurt nobody

if i slip well then i'm sorry

yes i am

honey i'm a good man

but i'm a cheatin' man

and i'll do all i can

to get a lady's love

and i wanna do right

i don't wanna hurt nobody

if i slip well then i'm sorry

yes i am

yes i am

yes i am
