Second Time Around Songtext
von Eric Andersen

Come on now, please don′t lie to me
I ain't blind; I got eyes, baby, I can see
I never realized you could be so unfaithful to me
You know I gambled for love, I was a fool for you
But when the game got rough, I never thought I′d lose
Till I realized you were bluffing your way through

When I found out you'd been with somebody else
Lord, I tried hard to pretend
That it didn't matter till you tried it once again


It′s all over town that you′ve been cheating 'round
Somebody else′s arms, second time around

So please don't cry, don′t beg me to stay
'Cause even if I did, how could I trust it anyway?
′Cause tomorrow morning could be just like today
So go find those arms, I hope they treat you kind
And when you run out on him, be sure you close the blinds
'Cause I bet he'll lose his just like I lost mine

And when he finds out you′ve been with somebody new
Lord, he′ll try hard to pretend
Oh, that it doesn't matter till you try it once again


It′s all over town that you've been cheating ′round
Somebody else's arms, second time around
