Lyrics Don't Cheat In Our Hometown - The Stanley Brothers

Don't Cheat In Our Hometown

Tonight my heart is beatin' low and my head is bowed
You’ve been seen with my best friend on the other side of town
I don’t mind this waitin', don’t mind this runnin' around
But if you’re gonna cheat on me don’t cheat in our home town
How can I stand up to my friends and look 'em in the eye
Admit the questions that I know would be nothin' but lies
You spend all your pastime makin' me a clown
So if you’re gonna cheat on me don’t cheat in our home town
Now there are no secrets in this little country town
Every one knows every one for miles and miles around
Your bright eyes and your sweet smile are drivin' me insane
You think it’s smart to break my heart and run down my name
How can I stand up to my friends and look 'em in the eye
Admit the questions that I know would be nothin' but lies
You spend all your pastime makin' me a clown
But if you’re gonna cheat on me don’t cheat in our home town
