And a boss who don't know I'm alive
I once had a notion I'd get that promotion,
But now I barley survive
A wife to demanding with no understanding
Of why I stay dead on my feet
A dimly lit tavern a willing young woman
Are some of the reasons I cheat
The hair that I'm losing and a women who's choosing
To lay sound asleep by my side
The bills they are mounting that's when I start counting
On someone to help sooth my pride
A lady that knows me affection she shows me and a smile so easy and sweet
The dreams that I've buried the load that I've carried
Are some of the reasons I cheat
My children keep on growing me age keeps on showing
Like all of my old friends I meet
So I'm getting older my life's growing colder
Just some of the reasons I cheat
Yes I'm getting older my life's growing colder
Just some of the reasons I cheat
A working day to long when everything goes wrong And a boss who don't know I'm alive I once had a notion I'd get that promotion, But now I barley survive A wife to demanding with no understanding Of why I stay dead on my feet A dimly lit tavern a willing young woman Are some of the reasons I cheat The hair that I'm losing and a women who's choosing To lay sound asleep by my side The bills they are mounting that's when I start counting On someone to help sooth my pride A lady that knows me affection she shows me and a smile so easy and sweet The dreams that I've buried the load that I've carried Are some of the reasons I cheat My children keep on growing me age keeps on showing Like all of my old friends I meet So I'm getting older my life's growing colder Just some of the reasons I cheat Yes I'm getting older my life's growing colder Just some of the reasons I cheat Explain Request ×
