"Cheatin' In the Key Of C"
The short of it... I was on tour down in the southern states, alone, being chased around by red headed women.
So I thought in order to play it safe, I would just write a what-if song. Hence "Cheatin In the Key Of C".

Lyrics

"Cheatin' In the Key Of C"
Words & Music by Lisa Sanders

Verse
Last night over dinner for two
You reached over and touched my hand
Ever so softly you whispered in my ear
Something I was shocked to hear
You said once, twice, three times you're out of my life
Verse
I said baby what's ever gotten in to you
Why'd you say those hurtful things to me
Maybe some other person you saw
Just hear me for two minutes
You said once, twice, three times you're out of my life, once or twice three times you're out of my life
Chorus
How could I ever leave you
What would possess me to think
You only need to know, that I care
Verse
You said you caught me red handed and the red head was lying in my bed
I said maybe your eyes were playing tricks on you
You said it was your best friend
You said once, twice three times you're out of my life
Chorus
How could I ever leave you
What would posses me to think
You only need to know, that I care
Verse
Tonight you show up at my front door
I was surprised to see you there
Wearing only a French coat and two bottles of wine
You said honey I've had a sudden change of heart.
This is only, your second offence
Once, twice, three times you're out of my life , one or twice, three times you're out of my life
Chorus
How could I ever leave you
What would posses me to think
You only need to know that I care
Three times good-bye, three times good-bye
