Cheater`s Road Lyrics

(Jason Sellers/Sharon Rice)

Down a dirt road in southern
Louisiana
Flew a white Continental with the top laid back
Pretty blonde
sittin' on a seat of red leather
Dust blowin' outta those well wore
tracks
She goin' back

Moss hangin' down like beards in the
bayou
Old folks watchin' from a rockin' chair
Ain't no place for a girl
of her state
She's gonna ruin her reputation
She don't care cause he's
waitin' there
She's gonna say

Tell me you think that I'm
pretty
Tell me you think that I'm smart
Tell me anything and I'll believe
it
'Cause I'm listening with my heart
Maybe it's wrong but that's the way
it goes
When the only love you get is down
Cheater's
road

Bedsprings rubbin' her back through the blanket
Sweat like a
tear rollin' down her neck
Watchin' him pullin' down the shades on the
window
She'd rather have him than an empty bed and her self respect
And
she says

Tell me you think that I'm pretty
Tell me you think that I'm
smart
Tell me anything and I'll believe it
'Cause I'm listening with my
heart
Maybe it's wrong but that's the way it goes
When the only love you
get is down
Cheater's road

Old man countin' his money in the
city
Nothin' but the bottom dollar on his mind
The whole situation is a
downright pity
He didn't even notice when she crossed that line
When she
crossed that line
And she said
Tell me you think that I'm pretty
Tell
me you think that I'm smart
Tell me anything and I'll believe it
'Cause
I'm listening with my heart
Maybe it's wrong but that's the way it
goes
When the only love you get is down
Cheater's road

Down
cheater's road
Oh tell me you think that I'm pretty
Tell me you think
that I'm smart
Oh tell me you think that I'm pretty
Tell me you think
that I'm smart
Oh tell me you think that I'm pretty
Tell me you think
that I'm smart
