Johnny came home, brokenhearted
Said, he lost his girl
He bottled up all the hurt in his heart
And punched hole in the wall of his world

Now Betty, she was a blonde haired beauty
With an eye for a man, who could spin
She stole his heart in a pickup truck
Then drove off in a Mercedes Benz
And he said

[chorus]
Oh, and she looked so innocent
Talking 'bout being just friends
Oh, and it don't make a bit of sense
But, ain't that the way that it always ends

Sharon, she had a long time dream
And only one man in her life
He kept her waiting, but she didn't care
Cause he promised he'd make her his wife

Now Billy, he had a good thing going
But, he let it go to his head
He got careless, and late one night
She caught them both in her bed
And she said

[chorus 2x]

Ain't that the way that it always ends
Ain't that the way it always ends
