Cheatin' is a thing that starts when you bring
Two lonely people face to face with a brand new kiss
She blames him, he blames her
But neither one is ever quite sure which way it really isAnd all of the time in the back of their minds
They know they're gonna have to lie 'bout where they've been
Cheatin' is a thing that'll take a little ring
And break it into pieces that'll never go together againCheatin' is the part of lovin' that starts
When true love isn't what lovers are looking for
A stranger here, a stranger there then you turn around and swear
That you'll never go back for moreAnd lying at night when you're holding him tight
Is something that a cheater's heart just has to learn
Cheatin' is a thing that's guaranteed to bring
Two unhappy people to the point of no return
