He left you, She left me

Drowning in this misery

We stopped living when they said goodbye

We've been faithful to these blues,

But I've had enough, now how 'bout you

Don't you think we've earned the right to go

Cheatin' on the blues tonight



Cheatin' on the blues tonight

Let's go out and do it right

Throw it into overdrive and

Get on down the road

Shake it til' the break of dawn

Party til' the heartache's gone

We'll have us a real good time

Cheatin' on the blues tonight



Pick you up, half past eight

You can bet I won't be late

With any luck, we'll make the dance by nine

We won't talk about the past

Let old memories die at last

Have some fun, keep it light

Cheatin' on the blues tonight



Cheatin' on the blues tonight

Let's go out and do it right

Throw it into overdrive and

Get on down the road

Shake it til' the break of dawn

Party til' the heartache's gone

We'll have us a real good time

Cheatin' on the blues tonight



Yeah, cheatin' on the blues tonight

Let's go out and do it right

Throw it into overdrive and

Get on down the road

Shake it til' the break of dawn

Party til' the heartache's gone

We'll have us a real good time

Cheatin' on the blues tonight



Yeah, we'll have us a real good time

Cheatin' on the blues tonight
