Did You Know?

Interesting facts and trivia about Before He Cheats. By Songfacts®.

This song is about revenge. Underwood sings about going into a parking lot and vandalizing her cheating boyfriend's 4x4 truck with a baseball bat. She finds solace knowing that the next time he cheats, it won't be on her.

When Underwood sings about her ex putting on "bathroom Polo," she's referring to vending machines found in the men's rooms of certain US drinking establishments that dispense low-grade cologne. The guys who buy these fragrances often believe it will help them attract a mate in the bar, although many females are actually repelled by the scent.

This song won the trophy for Single Of The Year at the 2007 Country Music Association Awards. In addition, Carrie Underwood also won the award for Female Vocalist Of The Year.
