Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I saw you Sunday, Monday

Hanging with your man again

You came back on a Tuesday

With that cold hard look of shame

[Verse 2]

Oh, I could love you better

Better than you once knew

And if you're cheating, cheat on yeah

'Cause cheating's just a thing you do

It's just a thing you do

[Verse 3]

I saw you Friday, Saturday

Tearing up another heart

You came home a'crying

Why'd you take it all so hard?

[Verse 4]

You know I love you better

Better than you once knew

And if you're cheating, cheat on yeah

But I would never cheat on you

[Verse 5]

Yeah, I could love you better

Better than you once knew

And if you're cheating, cheat on yeah

'Cause cheating's just a thing you do

It's just a thing you do

[Verse 6]

Oh, I've been told you, baby

You don't some things so bad to me, and I know

[Verse 7]

You are the one who's creeping

You are the one that's cheating

But if your heart is beating

Bring it on, bring it to me

[Verse 8]

You are the one that's creeping

You are the one who's cheating

But if your heart is beating

Bring it on, bring it to me

[Verse 9]

You are the one that's creeping

You are the one that's cheating

But if your heart is beating

Bring it on, bring it to me

[Verse 10]

You are the one that's creeping

You are the one that's cheating

But if your heart is beating

Bring it on, bring it to me

[Verse 11]

I could love you better

Better than you once knew

If you're cheating, cheat on

But I would never cheat on you, no

[Verse 12]

I could love you better

Better than you once knew

And if you're cheating, cheat on yeah

'Cause cheating's just a thing you do
