Everyone who sees you

Thinks you should be smiling
A
That girl, she's so pretty
A
That girl, she's so beguiling

Everyone who sees you

Thinks you should coo-coo her
E
And start acting all sappy
[Chorus]
A G E
But it's hard to laugh when you know that she's been cheating
A G E
Had her hands around him and she's been giving it a beating
A G E
Well it's hard to laugh when you know that she's been lying
A G E N.C.
But you've got to laugh to prevent yourself from crying

Why you're so serious
A
'Cause your woman's got a body

A
'Cause everytime you see it
E
You want to pull out your hair

But you've got to laugh to prevent yourself from crying
