(Billy Walker)

The next time that you see me
Please don't even speak
I don't even want you walkin'
Down the same side of the street.

That's what she said the day she left
And walked away from me
Pretend you just don't know me
If we ever chance to meet.

But she knows I couldn't
'Cause she takes along my heart
And if we ever meet again
I'll beg for another start.

I didn't mean to cheat on her
But I cheated just the same
To pretend I just don't know her if
I'm forgetting my own name.

I'll beg for another start.

I didn't mean to cheat on her
But I cheated just the same
To pretend I just don't know her if
