Cheating Man Songtext
von Anthony David

(Humming and Ad Libbing)

[Chorus]
Honey I′m a good man, but I'm a cheating 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.

When I was a young boy,
I used to watch my daddy play
And in my heart I′d always say
That he was wrong.
He had to be crazy
Knocked stone cold out outta his mind -
To be leaving my pretty mama all alone.

She'd always sit patient and waiting then
Cussing and crying
And who would have to be there to comfort her?
And I would have to look my mama
Right square in her eyes
And I′d swear that I'd never hurt no woman like that


[Chorus]
Baby I′m a good man, but I'm a cheating 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

Now that I′m older,
I found it's time to settle down
Cuz I need some love around
To make me whole.
But things are funny,
Cuz things I swore that I′d never do
I find myself falling a victim to
Losing total control.

Oh yea cuz, recently I ran into
Someone who reminds me of you and
Even though I know that kinda thing ain't right.
I find myself caught up in lies
Tryna swim against the tide,
And as the stage gets set for drama,
I can′t stop thinking about my mama.


[Chorus]
I'm a good man, but I′m a cheating 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.

Honey I'm a good man, but I′m a cheating 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.

Oh.
