Everywhere you look you can write a book On the trouble of a woman and a man But you can not impose you can't stick your nose Into something that you don't understand Still you wonder Who's cheatin' who, who's being true Who don't even care anymore It makes you wonder Who's doing right with someone tonight And who's car is parked next door I thought I knew her well I really couldn't tell That she had another lover on her mind You see it felt so right when she held me tight How could I be so blind Still you wonder Who's cheatin' who, who's being true Who don't even care anymore It makes you wonder Who's doing right with someone tonight And who's car is parked next door A heart is on the line each and every time Love is stolen in the shadows of the night Though it's wrong all along it keeps goin' on As long as you keep in outta sight Still you wonder Who's cheatin' who, who's being true Who don't even care anymore It makes you wonder Who's doing right with someone tonight And who's car is parked next door Still you wonder Who's cheatin' who, who's being true Who don't even care anymore It makes you wonder Who's doing right with someone tonight And who's car is parked next door Still you wonder Who's cheatin' who, who's being true Who don't even care anymore It makes you wonder Who's doing right with someone tonight And who's car is parked next door
