Cuts Like A Knife (Classic Version) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Drivin' home this evening
I could’ve sworn we had it all worked out
You had this boy believin'
Way beyond the shadow of a doubt, yeah
Well, I heard it on the street
I heard you might've found somebody new, yeah
Well, who is he, baby?
Who is he? And tell me what he means to you, oh, yeah

[Pre-Chorus]
I took it all for granted
But how was I to know
That you’d be letting go?

[Chorus]
Now it cuts like a knife
But it feels so right
Yeah, it cuts like a knife
Oh, but it feels so right

[Verse 2]
There's times I've been mistaken
There's timеs I thought I'd been misunderstood, ooh, yeah
So wait a minute, darlin'
Can't you see wе did the best we could? Ooh, we could
[Pre-Chorus]
This wouldn't be the first time
Things have gone astray
And now you’ve thrown it all away

[Chorus]
Now it cuts like a knife
Yeah, but It feels so right
Oh, it cuts like a knife
Yeah, but it feels so right (Na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na, na-na)
Oh, and it cuts like a knife
But it feels so right, baby (Na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na, na-na)
Oh, it cuts like a knife
Yeah, hey

[Pre-Chorus]
Well, I took it all for granted
But how was I to know
That you’d be letting go?

[Chorus]
Now it cuts like a knife
Yeah, but it feels so right
Ooh, it cuts like a knife
Yeah, but it feels so right, yeah
[Outro]
(Na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na, na-na)
Oh, it cuts like a knife
(Na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na, na-na)
Oh, yeah
But it feels so right, baby
(Na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na, na-na)
Oh, yeah
Cuts like a knife
Give it to me now
(Na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na, na-na)
Yeah, yeah
Come on, boy, oh
(Na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na, na-na)
Feels so right
Yeah, yeah, yeah
(Na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na, na-na)
Oh, it cuts like knife
(Na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na, na-na)
But it feels so right, yeah, yeah
Feels so right, baby
(Na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na, na-na)
Yeah, yeah, it feels so right
And it cuts like a knife
(Na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na, na-na)
Yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah
(Na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na, na-na)
But it feels so right
(Na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na, na-na)
Yeah, yeah

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
