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.

Intro:
[drum fill]

Verse 1:
Haven't you heard about the guy known as The Cheater / / / /
He'll take your girl and then he'll lie and he'll
mistreat her / / / /
It seems every day now
You hear people say now
Chorus:
F#maj7 G#m7 [major 7th implied by vocal harmonies]
Look out for The Cheater
Make way for the fool-hearted clown
Look out for The Cheater
[N.C.]
He's gonna build you up just to let you down
Verse 2:
All of you girls had better stay inside your door now
He'll hurt you once, then turn around and hurt you some more now
While he's out betrayin'
You'll hear people sayin'
[repeat chorus]

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
[key change to Ab]
[repeat chorus 2, in Ab]:
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
