Next time you see me, things won't be the same Next time you see me, things won't be the same And if it hurts you my darlin', you only got yourself to blame Well it's a true true sayin', all that shines is not gold Well it's a true true sayin', all that shines is not gold and like the good book says you got to reap just what you sow Well you lied, you cheated, oh-oh for so long Well you lied, you cheated, oh-oh for so long You're a wrong-doing woman and another girl has got your throne
