You said that you'd be happy With a baby on your knee But here I sat with him in my arms An' you're slippin' around on me You thought that you were being wise When you called me on the phone An' you said that you had been delayed But you'd soon be comin' home I knew that you'd been cheatin'' Cause you stayed away so long And I heard the jukebox playing When you called me on the phone That couldn't have been the radio' Cause it had that honky tonk sound An' the same old song kept comin' an' a goin' And the beat kept shufflin' around When I heard the people laughing I knew there must be somethin' wrong For it was much too late to be delayed For I could see the break of dawn I knew that you'd been cheatin'' Cause you stayed away so long And I heard the jukebox playing When you called me on the phone
