Lyrics
Chorus
You’re cheatin’ on me, cheatin’ on me
You’re not the kind of a sweetheart
I hoped you’d be
I trusted you, thought you’d be true
My love was so strong that I went along
Never dreaming you’d do me wrong
Love is a game and I’ve played on the square
But you’re the kind who can never play fair
I may forgive, but sure as you live
Someday you’re going to be sorry
You cheated on me
Chorus
You’re cheatin’ on me, cheatin’ on me
You’re not the kind of a sweetheart
I hoped you’d be
I trusted you, thought you’d be true
My love was so strong that I went along
Never dreaming you’d do me wrong
Don’t try to lie
I know all that you’ve done
Each butterfly has to pay for her fun
I may forgive, but sure as you live
Someday you’re going to be sorry
You cheated on me
