Be sure it's true when you say, I love you. It's a sin to tell a lie.
|
Millions of hearts have been broken, Just because these words were spoken.
|
I love you, Yes I do, I love you. If you break my heart I'll die.
|
So be sure it's true, When you say I love you, it's a sin to tell a lie.
|
|
Cross my heart, hope to die, I'll never, never ever tell another white lie.
|
Took a little girl out on a date last night,
|
Next to her Greta Gerty would have looked all right.
|
Now I'm between the devil and the deep blue sea, cause I said "Baby you look good to me."
|
I told her I loved her, but oh, how I lied, and now she's getting set to be my blushing bride.
|
If she leads me to the altar, I'm sunk cause I can't tell the preacher I was drunk.
|
So God have mercy on a "no account sinner,"
|
Give me one more chance to let another guy win her.
|
Cross my heart and hope to die, I'll never, never, never, tell one more time,
|
I'll never tell another white lie, do do di do do.
