I Heard the Jukebox Playing Lyrics

You said that you'd be happy
With a baby on your knee
But here I sat with him in my arms
An' you're slippin' around on me

You thought that you were being wise
When you called me on the phone
An' you said that you had been delayed
But you'd soon be comin' home

I knew that you'd been cheatin'
'Cause you stayed away so long
And I heard the jukebox playing
When you called me on the phone

That couldn't have been the radio
'Cause it had that honky tonk sound
An' the same old song kept comin' an' a goin'
And the beat kept shufflin' around

When I heard the people laughing
I knew there must be somethin' wrong
For it was much too late to be delayed
For I could see the break of dawn

I knew that you'd been cheatin'
'Cause you stayed away so long
And I heard the jukebox playing
When you called me on the phone
