Sure, the queens of country music may have the market cornered when it comes to singing about unfaithful men. But when the tables are turned and it’s the women doing the cheating, country music’s finest male vocalists show up to put their vocals to the topic.

George Jones, Garth Brooks, Toby Keith and Hank Williams are just a few of the country titans who’ve mastered the art of the cheatin’ song and all of the emotions infidelity elicits.

In this list, you’ll find songs that express betrayal, heartache, shame and even acceptance — but by far, the most common theme is anger.

Some, like Keith Urban, are content to let karma be the best revenge. But other songs, including our No. 1 pick, find the betrayed husband ready to take matters into his own hands, even if it means someone ends up dead.

Read on for a roundup of the 25 greatest cheating songs of all time, as sung from a man’s perspective.
