Randy Travis came out with a country song a while back called “Why I Cheat.” Here are some of the lyrics:

Mother-in-law visit demanding an inspection

Three preachers on fishing trip. The Methodist says, "Hey guys, since we’re not catching anything, why don’t we pass the time by sharing our secret sins?" The Pentecostal says, "I think that would be great!", but the Baptist says, "I don’t know...I think that’s a bad idea." After a half an hour
