when i think about cheatin'

i've never done anything

that would ever bring a tear to your eye

i've never crossed the line

or needed an alibi to cover up a lie

but darling i'll admit

they're been times when i could have

the thing that kept me strong

is the one thing that is always on my mind

when i think about cheatin'

i just think about you leavin'

and how my world would fall to pieces

if i tossed your love away

even when i'm tempted by some stranger

oh there's never any danger

i just think about you leavin'

when i think about cheatin'

there was a time in abilene

when he said all the things i wanted to hear

it was hard to turn him down

between the champaigne and the sound of whispers in my ear

but it just took one two-step with someone and i was missing you

he never had the chance cause i broke up the dance

before the song was through
