Well I knew she belonged to someone else at the time
But lonely look in women are a weakness of mine
So I bought all she said about the love he never gave her
And figured I just love her some and do us both a favor
Just as I got up to leave he walked through the door
And I guess I thought he`d be surprised
But he looked at me as if to say he`s been there before
And he offered me these words to the wise
He said you know she`s a cheater son but you believe that you`re the one
Who`s got a lot of what it takes to change her
And I know now that you can`t get her you ain`t much but that don`t matter
Nothing suits her better than a stranger
And the stranger man the better and the chances are she`ll set her
Eyes on you the next time she goes slummin`
So you sit back and wait your turn boy you got lots of times to learn boy
Cool it while you can your time`s comin`
Well it happens that in time it happened just like he said
And soon enough her shoes were settin` under my bed
And I`ll confess I did my best to prove that man had lied
But nothing short of suicide could keep her satisfied
So buddy losing her to you was just a matter of time
And it`s her time for finding something new
Nothing I can say is gonna make you change your mind
So I`ll just give the same advice to you
you know she`s a cheater son
I said cool it while you can cause your time`s comin`
