My True Confession - Brook Benton

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 lying 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

That's my true confession

True confession and I'm sorry

Sorry that I treated her so mean

Oh sorry that I treated her mean

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 lying 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

That's my True confession

Let her know that I

Sorry that I treated her so mean

Oh sorry that I treated her mean

I know her love was true

But I made her cry

Time after time

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 buys your magazine

Reads it in your magazine

Print the story it's mine

True confession

And I'll confession
