I still show up at five:
Let everybody know I've arrived.
I order up my usual bangles,
I don't want no-one to thank:
I'm not the guy they've come to learn to like.
Somewhere around about eight,
When it's up, wall to wall, in this place.
I sneak into the bathroom stall,
Lift the window, out I crawl:
Better things to do than drink.

Hey, I'm cheatin' on my honky-tonk,
'Fraid my friends are gonna talk.
Tryin' hide it best as I can.
Well, I don't want no-one to know,
What I'm doin', where I go:
Think I'm any less of a man.
I know they'll really kill me,
Try to pull me back if they only knew,
I've been cheatin' on my honky-tonk,
An' comin' home to you.

First time I slipped away,
I felt guilty 'bout all next day.
So next night, just to throw 'em off,
I got so drunk I had to fall,
On my b___ to save a little face.
They still don't know I'm doin' wrong,
But they been noticing how I've been gone.
An' I'm running out of ways to lie,
My poor ol' Momma's died three times:
I think they're close to catchin' on.

Hey, I'm cheatin' on my honky-tonk,
'Fraid my friends are gonna talk.
Tryin' hide it best as I can.
Well, I don't want no-one to know,
What I'm doin', where I go:
Think I'm any less of a man.
I know they'll really kill me,
Try to pull me back if they only knew,
I've been cheatin' on my honky-tonk,
An' comin' home to you.

Hey, I'm cheatin' on my honky-tonk,
'Fraid my friends are gonna talk.
Tryin' hide it best as I can.
Well, I don't want no-one to know,
What I'm doin', where I go:
Think I'm any less of a man.
I know they'll really kill me,
Try to pull me back if they only knew,
Yeah, I been cheatin' on my honky-tonk,
An' comin' home to you.

I know they'll really kill me,
Try to pull me back if they only knew,
I been cheatin' on my honky-tonk,
An' comin' home to you.
