Cheatin' On You
Composer(s): Jon Cleary
Performer(s): Taj Mahal; Jon Cleary & The Absolute Monster Gentlemen



It's the end to all my high jinks
It's the end to all my capers
Sort of a three-way story
The kind you'd read about in the Sunday papers

Thought I was getting over
Having both cakes and eatin' `em too
But to my surprise, my slice on the side
Been eatin' the forbidden fruit

Oh, I been cheatin' on you
I been cheatin' on you
Been cheatin' on you with somebody's
Been cheatin' on me

Thought I was Jimmy Slick (yeah, I thought that)
Thought I was Charlie Cool (thought that too)
But I'm just Sammy Stupid
My friends call me Freddy Fool

Wooooo, Cupid played a trick on me
Turned the duper into the duped
I'm so surprised to find my slice on the side
Been eatin' the forbidden fruit

Oh, I been cheatin' on you
I been cheatin' on you
I been cheatin' on you with somebody's
Been cheatin' on me

Wooooo, Cupid played a trick on me
Turned the duper into the duped
I'm so surprised to find my slice on the side
Been eatin' the forbidden fruit

I been cheatin' on you
I been cheatin' on you
I been cheatin' on you with somebody's
Been cheatin' on me

Baby, Baby been cheatin' on you
Cheatin' on you
I been cheatin' on you
Been cheatin' on you with somebody's
Been cheatin' on me

Cheatin' on you with somebody's
Been cheatin' on me
Cheatin' on you with somebody's
Been cheatin' on me
Cheatin' on you with somebody's
Been cheatin' on me
