Cheatin' on My Honky-Tonk Lyrics
CAPO II
INTRO: E A B7 E
I still show up at 5, let everybody know I've arrived
I order up my usual thing 'cause I don't want no one to think
I'm not the guy they've come to learn to like
Somewhere around about 8, when it's a wall-to-wall in this place
I sneak into the bathroom stall, lift the window while I crawl
Better things to do than drink
CHORUS:
Hey I'm cheatin' on my honky-tonk, 'fraid my friends are gonna talk
Try and hide it best as I can
Well I don't want no one to know what I'm doin', where I go
Think I'm any less of a man
I know they'll ridicule me, try to pull me back if they only knew
I've been cheatin' on my honky-tonk and comin' home to you
First time I slipped away, I felt guilty 'bout it all next day
So next night just to throw 'em off I got so drunk I had to fall
On my butt to save a little face
They still don't know I'm doin' 'em wrong, but they've been noticin' how I've been gone
And I'm runnin' out of ways to lie, my poor old mom has died three times
Things are close to catchin' on
SOLO: A E A B7
I know they'll ridicule me, try to pull me back if they only knew
I've been cheatin' on my honky-tonk and comin' home to you
