Haven't you heard about the guy known as the cheater
he'll take your girl and then he'll lie and he'll mistreat her
it seems every day now
you hear people say now
Look out for the cheater
make way for the fool-hearted clown
look out for the cheater
he's gonna build you up just to let you down
All of you girls had better stay inside your door now
he'll hurt you once, then turn around and hurt you some more now
while he's out betrayin'
you'll hear people sayin'
[repeat chorus]
That cheater took my baby
away from me
yes, and now, i don't mean maybe
i'll get her back, just wait and see
wait and see
one of these days he'll find a girl who knows all about him
she's gonna break his carefree heart and go on without him
and you'll hear thereafter
above all the laughter
Tough luck for the cheater
too bad for the fool-hearted clown
tough break for the cheater
who used to build you up just to let you down
Tough luck for the cheater
too bad for the fool-hearted clown
tough break for the cheater
who used to build you up just to let you down
