“Cheater, Cheater” is the breakout debut single from American country and bluegrass duo Joey + Rory, released in September 2008 as the lead track from their album The Life of a Song. Written by Rory Feek, Joey Feek, Kristy Osmunson, and Wynn Varble, the song delivers a fiery, bluegrass-infused confrontation of infidelity, marked by sharp lyrics and traditional instrumentation like Dobro, mandolin, and fiddle.

Originally recorded by the duo Bomshel, whose version did not chart, “Cheater, Cheater” found success in Joey + Rory’s hands, peaking at No. 30 on Billboard’s Hot Country Songs chart in early 2009. The song’s candid and unapologetic tone, exemplified by lines like “Where’d you meet that no-good white trash ho?”, resonated with audiences and critics alike, earning praise for its authenticity and traditional country sound.

The accompanying music video, directed by Peter Zavadil, features Joey confronting Rory over his character’s infidelity, culminating in a cameo by country star Naomi Judd as the “other woman.” This visual narrative, combined with the song’s raw energy, helped solidify Joey + Rory’s place in the country music scene following their third-place finish on CMT’s Can You Duet.

“Cheater, Cheater” stands as a testament to Joey + Rory’s commitment to honest storytelling and traditional country roots, setting the tone for their subsequent work and leaving a lasting impression as one of their most memorable tracks.

Lyrics

Cheater, cheater where’d you meet her
Down at Ernie’s Bar?
Did she smile your way, twirl her hair and say how cute your dimples are?
Did she use that line “Your place or mine?” while you danced with her real slow?
Tell me cheater, cheater where’d you meet that no good, white trash ho?

Liar, liar did you buy her whiskey all night long?
Did you hide your ring in the pocket of your jeans or did you just keep it on?
When the deed was done and you had your fun did you think I wouldn’t know?
Tell me cheater, cheater where’d you meet that no good, white trash ho?

Now I’m not one to judge someone that I ain’t never met
But to lay your hands on a married man is bout as low as a gal can get
Hey I wish her well as she rots in hell and you can tell her I said so
Cheater, cheater where’d you meet that no good, white trash ho?

Loser, loser hope you love her cuz your stuck with her now
Take your sorry butt, load up all your stuff, and get the hell out of my house
But I just wish you’d tell me this one thing before you go
Cheater, cheater where’d you meet that no good, white trash ho?

Now I’m not one to judge someone that I ain’t never met
But to lay your hands on a married man is bout as low as a gal can get
Hey I wish her well as she rots in hell and you can tell her I said so
Cheater, cheater where’d you meet that no good, white trash ho?

Yeah I just wish you’d tell me this one thing before you go
Cheater, cheater where’d you meet that low down, up town, slept with every guy around, pressed on eyelash, no good, white trash ho?

THE BEE GEES — THREE BROTHERS WHO REDEFINED THE SOUND OF POP AND SOUL . Barry Gibb – Lead vocals, guitar Robin Gibb – Lead vocals, distinctive vibrato Maurice Gibb – Harmony vocals, bass, keyboards From their humble beginnings in Manchester, England, to the dazzling heights of worldwide fame, the Bee Gees became far more than a musical group — they became a symbol of unity, artistry, and timeless emotion. Their harmonies weren’t built in studios or shaped by producers; they were born in the heart of brotherhood, forged through laughter, loss, and love that ran deeper than melody itself. The sound they created was unmistakable — Barry’s golden falsetto, Robin’s haunting vibrato, and Maurice’s steady, soulful grounding blended into something greater than the sum of its parts. Together, they didn’t just perform songs; they told stories that resonated across generations and genres. With unforgettable hits like “How Deep Is Your Love,” “Stayin’ Alive,” “To Love Somebody,” and “Words,” the Bee Gees turned disco into poetry, pop into emotion, and heartache into harmony. Their music defined the pulse of the 1970s and continued to inspire countless artists long after the glitter faded. But behind the hits was something purer — three brothers bound by music and meaning. Through every triumph and tragedy, they stood together, proving that family could be both the source of pain and the wellspring of creation. Even now, decades after their voices first rose together, their songs continue to echo through time — in film, on radio, and in the hearts of those who still hum their melodies in quiet moments. Because the Bee Gees weren’t just a sound. They were a feeling — of hope, of connection, of love that refuses to fade. Three voices. One soul. One eternal harmony.
