He swore this time
That he would be faithful
But his lack of disciplne
Pulled him apart
He swore everytime
He remembered oh yeah
Remembered that he promised his heart
I guess he'll never learn his lesson
The rules in his boook change from day to day
Once there was a time
He would care
But those times just got further away
He swore this time
That he would be faithful
He swore this time
He would not sin
He swore this time
That he would be faithful
Quite simply
He gave right in
Once there was a time he would listen
His promise and his word were so strong
But his promise was only as good
As his memory would serve him wrong
The adultra walks away
He swore this time
That he would be faithful
He swore this time
He would not sin
He swore this time
That he would be faithful
Quite simply
He gave right in
Once there was a place he could run to
But the places all disappeared as did his days
He remembered what an old cock eyed once said
The bulldog will never change his ways
He swore this time
That he would be faithful
He swore this time
That he would not sin
He swore this time
That he would be faithful
Quite simply
He gave right in

(CHORUS Twice)

Quite simply
He gave
Right in
