Accidentally I saw you this morning you were lovely dressed in your wedding gown 
And they say that you married a stranger to me that had drifted to our old hometown 
Accidentally you've met him one evening and you say it was love at first sight 
Accidentally on purpose you've married accidentally on purpose for spite 
Cause I saw out cheating and running around 
And I was just a fool with a heart of a clown 
Accidentally you were mistaken that night accidentally on purpose for spite 

Cause I saw out cheating

Johnny Cash

John R. "Johnny" Cash (February 26, 1932 – September 12, 2003), was an American singer-songwriter, actor, and author, who has been called one of the most influential musicians of the 20th century. Although he is primarily remembered as a country music icon, his songs and sound spanned many other genres including rockabilly and rock and roll—especially early in his career—as well as blues, folk, and gospel. This crossover appeal led to Cash being inducted in the Country Music Hall of Fame, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and Gospel Music Hall of Fame. more »
