Baby, Won't You Cheat On Me • PDF
Words and Music by Joe LaMay
Before you came along I wrote a hundred songs
About women running ‘round on me
How they broke my heart - and I rode the charts
All the way to the Op-er-ee
I bought fancy cars and big guitars
Every song went to number one
But since you came along I can’t write a song
Now, honey, here’s what must be done
Baby, baby, won’t you cheat on me
I need to write a new song like it used to be
You’d be doin’ us a favor now don’t you see
Baby, baby, won’t you cheat on me
Before you came along I would write my songs
For country radio
Now I’m sitting here with an empty page
The words don’t seem to flow
You’re my loving wife - there’s been no strife
You’ve made my life complete
But please head on down to that sleazy bar
At the dark end of the street
Baby, baby, won’t you cheat on me
I need to write a new song like it used to be
You’d be doin’ us a favor now don’t you see
Baby, baby, won’t you cheat on me
Now the song is done it’s gone to number one
Everybody’s calling me a star
And the music boys down in Nashville town
They're passing out big cigars
I’m on the radio and the TV shows
Who could ask for a better life
But there’s just one thing I really need to do
That’s to say to my cheating wife
Baby, baby, please don’t you cheat on me
I need you here like you used to be
When I asked you for a favor I was blind you see
Baby, baby, please don’t you cheat on me
