Denise LaSalle - "Your Husband Is Cheating On Us"

Denise LaSalle is a legend!  I've been listening to her since the early 70s with "Trapped By A Thing Called Love" and she's as good now as she's ever been.  "Your Husband Is Cheating On Us" reminds us that a player will keep on playing.  Yeah, he used to come to my house when he wanted to play around.  I love the line when she says that before she bows out gracefully, she'll tell everything she knows!  Uh oh, he better watch out!

Hey lady, honey your husband is cheating on us
Hey lady, honey your husband is cheating on us
I know you thought you had a good man
Thought you had a man that you could trust

He used to come to my house when he wanted to play around
But now he’s finding his pleasures on the other side of town

Chorus
Hey lady, honey your husband is cheating on us
I know you thought you had a good man
Thought you had a man that you could trust

He borrows my car, leaves me stranded on my feet
While he and his other woman ride
All up and down the street

The lies he used to tell you
I know them all too well
But now he’s lying to me, girl
And that’s why I’ve got to tell

He’s got too many women
Now somebody’s got to go
But before I bow out gracefully
I’ll tell everything I know

He’s lying to me, he’s lying to you
And won’t be too long before he’s lying to her, too

Enjoy!
