If there were a movie to make with a real heart to break I’d have a starring role
I could play the Part well I would really excell and take the oscar home
Ya see it’s not hard for me to make cheatin’ look real I’m a natural
And since I broke her heart I’ve been rehearsing the part for my acceptance speech
IF THEY HANDED OUT Awards for love I’m sure they’d make it clear
That I would be the winner of the fool of the year
If I could only erase or find a way to replace all those cheatin’ scenes
With a way to express on a reel of regret what she means to me
one lonely moment of fame on some old unfaithful stage is just devils praise
and a high price to pay for the permanent pain of the cheatin’ game
