Mahalia - Cheat Lyrics

Once a cheat always a cheat
Once a cheat always a cheat

You swear you're innocent but that's not the case
You've got that guilt written all over your face
You busy body, you can't stay in one place
You were out romancing and now you're asking for one more chance

I'ma give you one more
One more minute
Get up out here
Take all your shit
I'm about to reach my limit
Boy, please, oh

Tell me that girl is just a friend
Make me believe in you and then
You do it again
You hurt me again and again, oh

Once a cheat always a cheat, yeah
That's why I don't believe in what you're saying to me , uh
Oh no, no, no
Once a cheat always a cheat, oh
I shoulda used my mind, I shoulda left you last time

Oh, did you really think I wouldn't find out
'Bout all your late-night escapades on the town?
(Yes, I know)
What happened, you said you'd be holding me down? (Me down)
'Cause you call a man your lover but there's others doing that
My love is not a record
I'm not tryna run it back

One more, one more minute
Get up out here
Take all your shit
I'm about to reach my limit
Boy, please, oh

Tell me that girl is just a friend (go 'head)
Make me believe in you and then
You do it again
You hurt me again and again

Once a cheat always a cheat
That's why I don't believe in what you're saying to me
Oh no, no, no
Once a cheat always a cheat
I shoulda used my mind, I shoulda left you last time

I (I) just can't believe
You'd cheat on me (on me)
Tell me one thing
Was it worth it, baby?
'Cause it's over, I'm never looking back now
It's the past, what we had is ruined
It's time that I focus on me
So I threw out your stuff, 'cause your ass for the streets

Once a cheat always a cheat (always a cheat, oh-oh)
That's why I don't believe in what you're saying to me (yeah, yeah)
Oh no, no, no
Once a cheat always a cheat
I shoulda used my mind, I shoulda left you last time

Shoulda left you last time
Always, baby, oh
Once a cheat, always a- always a cheat
Baby
