Reasons I Cheat
Written by - Randy Travis
From - Storms Of Life
A working day too long
When everything goes wrong
And a boss who don't know I'm alive
I once had a notion
I'd get that promotion
But now I barley survive

A wife to demanding
With no understanding 
Of why I stay dead on my feet
A dimly lit tavern
A willing young woman 
Are 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
Thats when I start counting 
On someone to help sooth 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've carried
Are some of the reasons I cheat
                                      
My children keep on growing
Me, age keeps on showing
Like all of my old friends I meet
So I'm getting older
My life's growing colder
Just some of the reasons I cheat

Yes I'm getting older
y life's growing colder 
Just some of the reasons I cheat
