Lyin’ And Cheatin’ Lyrics

[Intro]
Why?
Tell me why
Why did you do this to me?
I trusted you
And you betrayed me
Why?
Tell me why

[Hook]
Why are you lyin' to me? Why
I know I'm not the only one baby. I know I'm not the only one
Why are you cheatin' on me? Ooh wee
I treated you like a queen baby

[Verse 1]
Last week I was cleanin' our bedroom
Sweepin' the floor, with my broom
Well, puttin' your clothing on, like a perfect lover
And guess what I found, in your pocket of your trousers
Don't you act like you don't understand
I found a man's number
Now you wan' explain me the real story, and I got one thing I wanna say
And I'm leaving you baby today

[Hook]
Why are you lyin' to me? Ooh wee
I know I'm not the only one baby. Baby why?
Why are you cheatin' on me? Why-y-y-y-y-y?
I treated you like a queen baby. Oh yeah
[Verse 2]
You say he was one of your friends
But listen how the story ends
Lookin' for explanations, I search in your diary
I got so many questions, and I was sorry
You were cheatin' on me, with my best friend Ronnie
Why ya wanna do this to me? I don't understand honey
I got one thing I wanna say
And I'm leaving you baby today

[Bridge]
Why? Cheatin' and lyin'; all you've ever done to me baby
Why? I was right when I see ya
Why? I won't give ya any more lovin' baby
This time I'm leavin', this time I'm free

[Hook]
Why are you lyin' to me? Oh yeah
I know I'm not the only one baby. I don't have to cry no more baby
Why are you cheatin' on me? I'm leavin' this time baby
I treated you like a queen baby. Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Hook]
Why are you lyin' to me? Why?
I know I'm not the only one baby. I know I'm not the only one
Why are you cheatin' on me? Good God almighty, why baby?
I treated you like a queen baby. Can I ask the question why?
[Hook]
Why are you lyin' to me? I gave everything, everything that you need, oh yeah
I know I'm not the only one baby Everybody know that you were blessed
Why are you cheatin' on me? And I have a favour, oh yeah
I treated you like a queen baby. Good God almighty

[Outro]
I'm not stayin' any more baby
And it's time to move on
Farewell sweetheart
Farewell

Why are you lyin' to me? Why you have to lie?
