Johnny came home broken-hearted,
Said he'd lost his girl,
He bottled up all the hurt in his heart,
Punched a hole in the wall of his world.
Now Betty, she was a blond-haired beauty,
With an eye for a man who could spin,
She stole his heart in a pick-up truck,
And drove off in a Mercedes Benz.
And he said:
CHORUS:
Oh, and she looked so innoncent,
Talkin' 'bout being just friends,
Oh, and it don't make a bit of sense,
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 x 2
Ain't that the way that it always ends,
Ain't that the way that it always ends.
