She told me not to hang out in the pool hall
Stay away from liquor, girls, and wine
She hates it when I'm missing
Gone to do some picking
In that lazy, down-home country style
And I'm cheatin' on my darling again
Cheatin' on my darling again
Getting dirty looks from all of her friends
Tho' I promised her I'd try to make amends
I'm cheatin' on my darling again
Now young girls' pretty lips just taste so fine
They flash you that toothy smile
That says 'you could be mine'
And you're flattered into thinking
By the soft lights and the drinking
That the good old days ain't so far behind
I promised her that I would quit smoking
I promised her my gambling days were gone
I promised her and yet, I clean forgot
When my good time drinking buddies come to call
Stay away from liquor, girls, and wine
She hates it when I'm missing
Gone to do some picking
In that lazy, down-home country style
And I'm cheatin' on my darling again
Cheatin' on my darling again
Getting dirty looks from all of her friends
Tho' I promised her I'd try to make amends
I'm cheatin' on my darling again
Now young girls' pretty lips just taste so fine
They flash you that toothy smile
That says 'you could be mine'
And you're flattered into thinking
By the soft lights and the drinking
That the good old days ain't so far behind
I promised her that I would quit smoking
I promised her my gambling days were gone
I promised her and yet, I clean forgot
When my good time drinking buddies come to call
