A working day too long When everything goes wrong And a boss who don't know I'm alive I once had a notio I'd get that promotion But now I barely survive A wife too demanding With no understanding Of why I stay dead on my feet A dimly lit tavern A willing youg woman Are some of the reasons I cheat My children keep growin' My age keeps on showin' Like all of my old friends I meet So I'm gettig older My life's growing colder Just some of the reasons I cheat The hair that I'm losing And a woman 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 soothe 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 carry Are some of the reasons I cheat My children keep growin' My age keeps on showin' Like all of my old friends I meet So I'm gettig older My life's growing colder Just some of the reasons I cheat Yes, I'm gettig older My life's growing colder Just some of the reasons I cheat
