Courtesy of CMT, the 40 Greatest Done Me Wrong Songs
Not sure I agree with all of them, and there are several I am not familiar with, but I gotta agree with number 1 - Hank broke your heart with that one. And, not only does he call her out as a cheater, he tells her she'll come crawlin' back and he won't be there. Basically, "I may be hurting but you will suffer for what you've done, too"
I have definitely sung along to number 36 a time or two in my life.
Ooh, and number 16 is one of my favorite songs of the last year.
It's two in the morning and you are looking at broken heart songs...just for fun??

Figured as long as I was there I would post about it.....

I wonder why they didn't include Randy Travis' "On the Other Hand"? I guess that's actually a faithful song, but it still sounds like a cheating song to me.
And "Goodbye Earl" is just plain funny.
