I Heard The Jukebox Playing Lyrics - Country Music Hall Of Fame - Kitty Wells

You said that you'd be happy 

With a baby on your knee 

But here I sat with him in my arms 

An' you're slippin' around on me 

You thought that you were being wise 

When you called me on the phone 

An' you said that you had been delayed 

But you'd soon be comin' home 

I knew that you'd been cheatin' 

'Cause you stayed away so long 

And I heard the jukebox playing 

When you called me on the phone 

That couldn't have been the radio 

'Cause it had that honky tonk sound 

An' the same old song kept comin' an' a goin' 

And the beat kept shufflin' around 

When I heard the people laughing 

I knew there must be somethin' wrong 

For it was much too late to be delayed 

For I could see the break of dawn 

I knew that you'd been cheatin' 

'Cause you stayed away so long 

And I heard the jukebox playing 

When you called me on the phone
