The Cheater

From the liner notes to the _Look Out For The Cheater_ LP:

There's a big hullabaloo coming from MUSICLAND, U.S.A.! ... and it's

all coming from BOB KUBAN AND THE IN-MEN, the most exciting musical

sound to come along in all my eight years as producer and emcee of the

"St. Louis Hop" television dance show.

BOB KUBAN, leader of this big-band sound, is a young, handsome

instrumental music instructor at Bishop Du Bourg High School and is Du

Bourg's first winner of the much coveted _John Philip Sousa Award_!

Here's the inside on the IN-MEN: GREG HOELTZEL, a Washington University

student, plays the organ; MIKE KRENSKI, St. Louis University student,

is bass player and composer; brass and reeds are expertly handled by PAT

HIXON, HARRY SIMON, and SKIP WEISSER, all attending St. Louis Institute

Of Music; talented KEN SMITH is lead guitarist; and, according to the

girls, lead vocalist [Sir!] WALTER SCOTT "sings adorably!" [AWR: Bob

Kuban played drums - AWR]

This album contains some of the brightest sounds I have heard in this

new generation. I know you'll appreciate this fresh, long-awaited

versatile group -- they'll be musical stars for years to come!

P.S.: The IN-MEN and their producer, Mel Friedman, asked me to make

public their gratitude to Al Bussen, skillful sound engineer,

Technisonic Studios, Inc., St. Louis.

That cheater took my baby

Away from me

Yes, and now, I don't mean maybe

I'll get her back, just wait and see

[key change to G]

Wait and see

Verse 3:

One of these days he'll find a girl who knows all about him

She's gonna break his carefree heart and go on without him

And you'll hear thereafter

Above all the laughter

Chorus 2:

Tough luck for The Cheater

Too bad for the fool-hearted clown

Tough break for The Cheater

Who used to build you up just to let you down

Tough luck for The Cheater

Too bad for the fool-hearted clown

Tough break for The Cheater

Who used to build you up just to let you down
