To comfort an old friend who's feeling down.
But he knows where she's going when she's leaving;
She's headed for the cheatin' side of town.

(Trivia note: The American Heart Association--according to what I heard on the radio--is using "Staying Alive" to teach CPR because the beat is exactly the right speed for compressions.)
