Before He Cheats (lyrics)
Right now, he’s probably slow dancin’ with a bleach-blonde tramp
And she’s probably gettin’ frisky
Right now, he’s probably buyin’ her some fruity little drink
‘Cause she can’t shoot whiskey
Right now, he’s probably up behind her with a pool stick
Showin’ her how to shoot a combo
And he don’t know
I dug my key into the side (into the side)
Of his pretty little souped-up four-wheel drive
Carved my name into his leather seats
I took a Louisville slugger to both headlights (both headlights)
Slashed a hole in all four tires
Maybe next time, he’ll think before he cheats
Right now, she’s probably up singing some
White-trash version of Shania karaoke
Right now, she’s probably sayin’, “I’m drunk”
And he’s a-thinkin’ that he’s gonna get lucky
Right now, he’s probably dabbin’ on
Three dollars worth of that bathroom Polo
Oh, and he don’t know
Oh, that I dug my key into the side (into the side)
Of his pretty little souped-up four-wheel drive
Carved my name into his leather seats
I took a Louisville slugger to both headlights (both headlights)
Slashed a hole in all four tires
Maybe next time, he’ll think before he cheats
I might’ve saved a little trouble for the next girl
A-’cause the next time that he cheats
Oh, you know it won’t be on me
No, not on me
‘Cause I dug my key into the side (into the side)
Of his pretty little souped-up four-wheel drive
Carved my name into his leather seats
I took a Louisville slugger to both headlights (both headlights)
Slashed a hole in all four tires
Maybe next time, he’ll think before he cheats
Oh, maybe next time, he’ll think before he cheats
Oh, before he cheats
Oh
