Before He Cheats Lyrics

Right now he's probably slow dancing with a bleach blonde tramp,
and she's probably getting frisky...
right now, he's probably buying her some fruity little drink cause she can't shoot whiskey...

Right now, he's probably up behind her with a...

    Alright girls, we all need at least one song to let our ex's know, that it ain't right to cheat. This is simply about a girl that thought she loved her boyfriend, and he does this too her. completely wrong. Men, tend to think with their hands, not their head. This girl, wanted that all to change, and so she showed him that it will not be tolerated to cheat. She knew the truck meant something to him, so she went after that, because she knew it would hurt him most!! A little advice for the guys, DON'T CHEAT!!

    I think this song shows that if you cheat on anybody they will get revenge. Guys don't cheat on your girl. All this girl wanted was to be loved and respected and the guy cheated on her and so she got revenge, tore his truck up and basically sent a message to all the other girls that hes a cheater and to go by the saying "Once a cheater, ALWAYS a cheater"

    I think it was a warning. Like she says: "Save a little trouble for the next girl, Cuz the next time that he cheats..." She's warning him. In Two Black Cadillacs, she kills him by running him over. She did it because he didn't listen and cheated on her... Again!

    First of all, I LOVE Carrie Underwood. She is my idol. But, the important part is that you shouldn't mess with a girl who's able to do that. You should love, respect, and think about her everyday. If you don't do that, then she doesn't deserve you and she WILL move on. I'm telling you (especially the guys), DO NOT TRUST A GIRL/BOY THAT LOOKS LIKE A CHEATER/SUSPICIOUS!!!!!!!

    For all guys in the world don't cheat on your girlfriends because it is just playing wrong to do that when the girl is a southern girl with an attitude like carrie underwood states in this song never cheat ever because the girl will do this to your truck soon if she catches you cheating on her.

    This song is about some dipwad boyfriend who has the ever loving nerve to cheat on his wonderful girlfriend. Once she finds out he is messing around with another girl she went ballistic on his car.

    A bit of advice to females...
    Its just a guy. If he cheats move on.
    If you do ANYTHING like hinted in the song. You WILL go to jail. Vandalizing is a crime. Cheating is not. It sucks but you get over it. Ruin someones car and watch how fast you spend the next 2 years in jail and buy him a new truck.

    This is about her finding out her BF was cheating on her and she's getting back and is warning the other girl about him!

    Girls shouldn't cheat either. I think this song was the result of a bad break up.
