I fed an old stray dog this mornin' 'cause he looked hungry
I gave an old wino a dollar
'Cause he was beggin' on the street
Because you're what you are to me I sent the roses
Oh, the last thing I planned to do today was cheat
I had some time to kill and felt a little thirsty
I went inside the local bar
And in the corner took a seat
Had my first cool sip then noticed she was cryin'
Oh, the last thing I planned to do today was cheat
But you know I've always been so tender hearted
I just couldn't stand to watch her hurt that way
And when she said how much she wanted me to hold her
I just didn't have the heart to turn away
(spoken)
Well, I'm feelin' guilty now, but I sure found it hard
to leave her. 'Cause there she lay, sleepin' all alone
between the sheets
(sing)
I thought of your sweet love and all my good intentions
Oh, the last thing I planned to do today was cheat
Oh, the last thing I planned to do today was cheat
