She's Not Really Cheatin' (She's Just Gettin' Even)

(album: She's Not Really Cheatin' (She's Just Gettin' Even) - 1982)

Not a hair out of place
She makes up her face
Then she makes up a lie

She's dressed fit to kill
And it takes all his will
Not to cry

She don't know that he knows
And he won't let it show
As she's leaving

Ooh, she's not really cheating
She's just getting even

And he's going through hell
But he knows to well it's deserved
She telling all the same lies
The same alibis that she's heard
Two wrongs don't make it right
But he knows tonight she's believing
That's she's not really cheating
She's just gettin even

She's never been untrue
So this is all new
But she's catching on fast

Her cheating is fair
'Cause he's done his share
In the past

He has to understand
Cause he's an old hand [?]
At this even [?]

So she's not really cheating
She's just getting even

And he's going through hell
But he knows to well it's deserved
She telling all the same lies
The same alibis that she's heard
Two wrongs don't make it right
But he knows tonight
She's believing
That's she's not really cheating
