dear mr editor won’t you please
print my story in your magazine
warn all the lovers how a cheating heart
can only end up in misery
i was a lyin’ cheating fool
i treated her so cruel
broke her heart and made her cry
broke every rule and that’s my
true confession
she can read the story
read it in your magazine
that’s my true confession
true confession
and i’m sorry
sorry that i treated her so mean
oh i’m sorry that i treated her mean
now i would call her up and apologize
if i was half the man i should be
but i’m afraid it’s too late for that
’cause i know she wouldn’t listen to me
i was a lyin’ cheating fool
treated her so cruel
broke her heart and made her cry
broke every rule and that’s my
true confession
she can read the story
read it in your magazine
print the story it’s my
true confession
and i’m sorry
sorry that i treated her so mean
oh i’m sorry that i treated her mean
i know her love was true
but i made her cry so many times
until one day she couldn’t take it no more
she said goodbye to me
and walked straight out the door
so please mr editor ask her for me
to take me back and give me a try
and i’ll be true oh so true
and i’ll love her till the day i die
and that’s my
true confession
she can read the story
read it in your magazine
print the story it’s my
true confession
i’m sorry
sorry that i treated her so mean
oh true confession
an’ she can read it your magazine
that’s my
true confession
and i’m sorry sorry
sorry that i treated her so mean
