This is a Garth song. And it uses a montage of Garth pictures. But I don't think this is Garth. He's known to be a REAL butthead about having his videos on youtube. A LOT of videos that are attributed to him are really covers disguised as his.
I could be wrong, been wrong more than once, but I've seen several reports about Garth and his antipathy to youtube.
I know we shouldn't judge, but with his looks it's hard to imagine Lyle cheating if he was ever lucky enough to get a woman. I know, I know, the ladies love him. Just personal opinion.
It is a great song, I'm not sure why you would think that posting my opinion is some kind of insult. May I suggest that since it wasn't directed at you that you don't take it personally? Just a thought.
Better tell your keyboard--it posted this in your name:
It's a great song, regardless of your insults. Sorry I posted it. Maybe you can delete it as "no value".

Sounds EXACTLY like you took it personally, and it wasn't even a real insult--just an imagined one!
I want you to know that I'm happy for you I wish nothing but the best for you both An older version of me Is she perverted like me? Would she go down on you in a theatre? Does she speak eloquently? And would she have your baby? I'm sure she'd make a really excellent mother 'Cause the love that you gave, that we made wasn't able to make it enough for you to be open wide, no And every time you speak her name Does she know how you told me you'd hold me until you die, 'til you die? But you're still alive And I'm here to remind you Of the mess you left when you went away It's not fair to deny me Of the cross I bear that you gave to me You, you, you oughta know You seem very well, things look peaceful I'm not quite as well, I thought you should know Did you forget about me, Mr. Duplicity? I hate to bug you in the middle of dinner It was a slap in the face How quickly I was replaced And are you thinking of me when you f*** her? 'Cause the love that you gave that we made wasn't able to make it enough for you to be open wide, no And every time you speak her name Does she know how you told me you'd hold me until you die, 'til you die? But you're still alive And I'm here to remind you Of the mess you left when you went away It's not fair to deny me Of the cross I bear that you gave to me You, you, you oughta know 'Cause the joke that you laid in the bed: that was me, and I'm not gonna fade as soon as you close your eyes And you know it And every time I scratch my nails down someone else's back I hope you feel it Well, can you feel it? Well, I'm here to remind you Of the mess you left when you went away It's not fair to deny me Of the cross I bear that you gave to me You, you, you oughta know I am here to remind you Of the mess you left when you went away It's not fair to deny me Of the cross I bear that you gave to me You, you, you oughta know
I know this a good song and that it's really popular but as far as I'm concerned, Alanis peaked on You Can't Say That On Television. She's just not my cup of tea. I think it has to do with the fact that she has no idea what irony is.
Some facts that many people don't know, this is about Uncle Joey on Full House. Dave Coulier. Alanis was just a younger woman he had a fling with as far as he was concerned. She took it more seriously, clearly.
And the movie she went down on him was The Lion King.
Love hurts, love scars, love wounds And marks, any heart Not tough or strong enough To take a lot of pain, take a lot of pain Love is like a cloud Holds a lot of rain Love hurts......ooh, ooh love hurts I'm young, I know, but even so I know a thing or two And I learned from you I really learned a lot, really learned a lot Love is like a flame It burns you when it's hot Love hurts......ooh, ooh love hurts Some fools think of happiness Blissfulness, togetherness Some fools fool themselves I guess They're not foolin' me [1] I know it isn't true, I know it isn't true Love is just a lie Made to make you blue Love hurts......ooh, ooh love hurts ooh, ooh love hurts
Feelin' better now that we're through Feelin' better, 'cause I'm over you I learned my lesson, it left a scar Now I see how you really are
You're no good You're no good You're no good Baby, you're no good
I'm gonna say it again You're no good You're no good You're no good Baby, you're no good
I broke a heart that's gentle and true Well, I broke a heart over someone like you I'll beg his forgiveness on bended knee I wouldn't blame him if he said to me
You're no good You're no good You're no good Baby, you're no good
I'm gonna say it again You're no good You're no good You're no good Baby, you're no good
It was late last night when the boss come home He's askin' about his lady The only answer he received, "She's gone with the Gypsy Davy, gone with the gypsy Davy" "Go saddle for me my buskin' horse And a hundred dollars saddle Point out to me their wagon tracks And after them I'll travel, after them I'll ride" Well, I had not rode 'til the midnight moon When I saw the campfire gleaming I heard the notes of the big guitar And the voice of the gypsy singin' That song of the gypsy Dave There in the light of the camping fire I saw her fair face beaming Her heart in tune with the big guitar And the voice of the gypsy singing That song of the gypsy Dave Have you forsaken your house and home Have you forsaken your baby Have you forsaken your husband dear To go to the gypsy Davy And sing with the gypsy Dave That song of the gypsy Dave Yes, I've forsaken my husband dear To go with the gypsy Davy And I've forsaken my mansion high But not my blue-eyed baby Not my blue-eyed babe She smiled to leave her husband dear And go with the Gypsy Davy But the tears come a-trickling down her cheeks To think of the blue-eyed baby Pretty little blue-eyed babe Take off, take off your buckskin gloves Made of Spanish leather Give to me your lily-white hair And we'll ride home together We'll ride home again No, I won't take off my buckskin gloves They're made of Spanish leather I'll go my way from day to day And sing with the Gypsy Davy That song of the Gypsy Davy That song of the Gypsy Davy That song of the Gypsy Dave
You said you'd start off with a couple of oldies, and I figured I could go back farther than you. Anyway, Wheel, it's good to see you active again. I'd like others to know that on NV you were one of the very few people who were capable of teaching me something and causing me to change my mind.
You, Jack Gillis and few others had a lasting effect on me too from our time on the Vine. Got 'Vine ripened' so to speak.
Buzz, your song reminded me of a Bob Dylan song, because of the Spanish Leather thing. It's even appropriate for our topic today, cheatin' songs, provided we stipulate that a sailor can cheat with the sea. it's really one of my very favorite songs by one of my favorite groups from North Carolina, Mandolin Orange, covering Dylan's Boots Of Spanish Leather. I know you're behind a firewall and can't see youtube but maybe you can find another path.
Andrew has a unique voice and ,Emily is a gifted musician with a fine voice of her own. It's quite unusual in that they reverse the roles, Andrew sings what most would consider to be the female part and Emily sings the male part. I hope you will all enjoy this and maybe even listen to some of their other songs.
If one thinks Alanis Morissette's response to cheating was harsh then listen with caution to Marianne Faithfull's blistering odd to a cheating bastard.
Marianne Faithfull Why'd Ya Do It ( Lyric Video ) Notice Age-restricted video (requested by uploader)
.
Marianne's song is a scorched earth scream caused by the pain of cheating but Harry's two songs about he and his future wife's cheating are kinda of sweet.
Picked a live performance where he leads off with his odd to the cuckold husband then follows that up with the song he wrote about the start of his affair with the mans wife, (soon to be Harry's wife).
Harry Chapin - Poor Damned Fool / I Wanna Learn A Love Song - 10/21/1978 (Official)
I was thinking about the article we did together a few weeks ago about songs with men's names in them and I remembered that at least one of them was also a cheating song.
One of my FB friends shared this one with me, Simon Crutchfield's grave.
I love Adele, always have. I was wondering if anyone would bring in this Adele song. Great song by a great singer. She's got a few songs about cheatin', apparently it's a recurring theme in her life. Here's one where she's the heartbreaker.
the best
TELL HIM I'M NOT HOME - Chuck Jackson
If dancing is cheating...Gimme Three Steps.
Not sure that's a cheatin' song so much as a raging jealousy song. But, still a good song.
Cheating with a twist. Good one.
Ohh, nice one.
Sublime: Santeria
Albert King - Laundromat blues.
...and this is how we wind up with shoot outs in laundromats.
Kenny Rogers and the First Edition.........................
Ohhhh, yeah. Heart breaker. I had forgotten this. Good one.
Keeping it Kenny "Lucille"
All I Wanna Do Is Make Love to You
Not even close:
[jrEmbed module="jrYouTube" youtube_id="hajBdDM2qdg"]
I remember a time I could hardly turn the radio on without hearing this song.
Love me some Motown ..... always have
Well then. How bout some Billy Paul
Good song, not sure it's a cheatin' song. More like a longing for someone who can't see him song.
Freddy Fender, Before the Next Teardrop falls, would fit in the category too. Still, really good song, thanks. I never heard it before.
Another song, and one of my favorites, that I think would fit in the 'unrequited love' category.
Love that song. Longing for love makes for good songs.
Yes it does Of course I've had crush on Linda every since I first saw here way back in the dark ages. So she can do no wrong.
Songs about unrequited love could be a whole nother thing for us to waste time on.
This is a Garth song. And it uses a montage of Garth pictures. But I don't think this is Garth. He's known to be a REAL butthead about having his videos on youtube. A LOT of videos that are attributed to him are really covers disguised as his.

Well, I didn't watch the video, so you might be right.
Oh yeah. That's the ticket
"I know you've deceived me,
now here's the surprise.
I know that you have because
There's magic in my eyes."
Oh yeah, there's some cheatin' going on there.
THE NIGHT HAS A THOUSAND EYES - Bobby Vee
Sad thing is, I remember when this song came out.
LITTLE DIANE - Dion
Who couldn't love a cheatin' song with kazoo accompaniment
RUBY DONT TAKE YOUR LOVE TO TOWN - Kenny Rogers and The First Edition
I hate to say it, but I've never known a woman named Ruby that I liked. Probably just me....
Lyle Lovett, Nobody Knows Me
I know we shouldn't judge, but with his looks it's hard to imagine Lyle cheating if he was ever lucky enough to get a woman. I know, I know, the ladies love him. Just personal opinion.
It's a great song, regardless of your insults. Sorry I posted it. Maybe you can delete it as "no value".

I don't take NT commentary personally.

No one was talking to you.
This is not a productive line of discussion. Let's just have fun, ok?

Knew the Uncle Joey part but not the Lion King part
Saw him on one of the talk shows, maybe the Tonight show, he was talking about it...and laughing. Clearly it didn't mean as much to him as her.
Time for a curve ball. How many of you thought this song was sung by a black lead singer?
I Like Bread and Butter, I like Toast and Jam.
Love hurts, love scars, love wounds And marks, any heart Not tough or strong enough To take a lot of pain, take a lot of pain Love is like a cloud Holds a lot of rain Love hurts......ooh, ooh love hurts I'm young, I know, but even so I know a thing or two And I learned from you I really learned a lot, really learned a lot Love is like a flame It burns you when it's hot Love hurts......ooh, ooh love hurts Some fools think of happiness Blissfulness, togetherness Some fools fool themselves I guess They're not foolin' me [1] I know it isn't true, I know it isn't true Love is just a lie Made to make you blue Love hurts......ooh, ooh love hurts ooh, ooh love hurts
Haven't thought of this song in years. Glad you brought it up.
Feelin' better, 'cause I'm over you
I learned my lesson, it left a scar
Now I see how you really are
You're no good
You're no good
Baby, you're no good
You're no good
You're no good
You're no good
Baby, you're no good
Well, I broke a heart over someone like you
I'll beg his forgiveness on bended knee
I wouldn't blame him if he said to me
You're no good
You're no good
Baby, you're no good
You're no good
You're no good
You're no good
Baby, you're no good
And I'm going my …
Great song! Great choice! Thanks.

"All your friends, with their fancy persuasions
Don't admit that it's part of the scene.
But I can't help but have my suspicions
Cause I ain't quite as dumb as I seem.
yeah, that right there is one of the verses that cut to bone.
Woody Guthrie – Gypsy Davy Lyrics
He's askin' about his lady
The only answer he received, "She's gone with the
Gypsy Davy, gone with the gypsy Davy"
"Go saddle for me my buskin' horse
And a hundred dollars saddle
Point out to me their wagon tracks
And after them I'll travel, after them I'll ride"
Well, I had not rode 'til the midnight moon
When I saw the campfire gleaming
I heard the notes of the big guitar
And the voice of the gypsy singin'
That song of the gypsy Dave
There in the light of the camping fire
I saw her fair face beaming
Her heart in tune with the big guitar
And the voice of the gypsy singing
That song of the gypsy Dave
Have you forsaken your house and home
Have you forsaken your baby
Have you forsaken your husband dear
To go to the gypsy Davy
And sing with the gypsy Dave
That song of the gypsy Dave
Yes, I've forsaken my husband dear
To go with the gypsy Davy
And I've forsaken my mansion high
But not my blue-eyed baby
Not my blue-eyed babe
She smiled to leave her husband dear
And go with the Gypsy Davy
But the tears come a-trickling down her cheeks
To think of the blue-eyed baby
Pretty little blue-eyed babe
Take off, take off your buckskin gloves
Made of Spanish leather
Give to me your lily-white hair
And we'll ride home together
We'll ride home again
No, I won't take off my buckskin gloves
They're made of Spanish leather
I'll go my way from day to day
And sing with the Gypsy Davy
That song of the Gypsy Davy
That song of the Gypsy Davy
That song of the Gypsy Dave
Nice one Buzz. Showing your age.
You said you'd start off with a couple of oldies, and I figured I could go back farther than you. Anyway, Wheel, it's good to see you active again. I'd like others to know that on NV you were one of the very few people who were capable of teaching me something and causing me to change my mind.
You, Jack Gillis and few others had a lasting effect on me too from our time on the Vine. Got 'Vine ripened' so to speak.

"Take heed, take heed
of the western wind.
I'll take heed of the stormy weather..."
Yeah. Sounds like someone is pissed off and wishing someone a bad day, doesn't it?
Got it, Wheel.
An excellent rendition.
Glad you could find it. It's really a nice version isn't it?
Yep. Interesting combo of guitar and violin as well.
The Iceman! Hilarious lyrics. Really creative guitar work.
Great song! Very funny.
Randy Travis "On the other hand"
I don't know how I managed to let Randy Travis drop out of my play list. He's definitely going back in. Thanks
I'm off till tomorrow but gonna leave one more before I go. This one is a more modern favorite of mine.
Well. Damn. That's not a tearjerker or anything.
Love this one. Alison Krauss can bring a tear to your eye with just about any song, but this one... You need a box of Kleenex.
huh, never heard that song or this singer before. thanks

Have to go to youtube to see the Marianne Faithful one, totally worth it.
I've seen Harry in concert 2 times. He put on a wonderful show, full of happiness and wisdom and compassion. We lost him much too soon.
My wife and I got to see him back in the late 70's when he played at the State Fair Music Hall in Dallas. A perfect venue for his show.
The opening act that night was Leo Kottke.
Kottke just sat on his stool in the middle of the stage and played 3 or 4 different guitars with astounding virtuosity.
I remember a six string, twelve string and some amazing slide work.
Leo Kottke - medley
Anyway, at the end of the night we got to meet Harry, shake his hand and get his sig. on a book of his poems.
It was a great night.
Too bad that book has drifted away from me on the eddies of time.
Such a sad loss losing Harry when and in the way that we did.
...............................
That song sure does convey the combination of both PAIN & ANGER that cheating can bring on.
Great article Wheel!!!
Thanks. I don't want y'all to think I don't do anything but sit around listening to music and smoking pot all day. I read a lot of books too....
