You said that you'd be happy   With a baby on your knee   But here I sat with him in my arms   An' you're slippin' around on me      You thought that you were being wise   When you called me on the phone   An' you said that you had been delayed   But you'd soon be comin' home      I knew that you'd been cheatin'   'Cause you stayed away so long   And I heard the jukebox playing   When you called me on the phone      That couldn't have been the radio   'Cause it had that honky tonk sound   An' the same old song kept comin' an' a goin'   And the beat kept shufflin' around      When I heard the people laughing   I knew there must be somethin' wrong   For it was much too late to be delayed   For I could see the break of dawn      I knew that you'd been cheatin'   'Cause you stayed away so long   And I heard the jukebox playing   When you called me on the phone
