It's a Sin to Tell a Lie
Be sure it's true when you say "I love you"It's a sin to tell a lieMillions of hearts have been brokenJust because these words were spokenI love you, yes I do, I love youIf you break my heart I'll dieSo be sure it's true when you say "I love you"It's a sin to tell a lieCross my heart and I hope to dieI'll never, never, ever tell another white lieTook a little doll out on a date last nightNext to her, *Gravel Gertie* would have looked all rightNow 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 liedAnd now she's gettin' set to be my blushin' brideIf she leads me to the altar, then I'm sunkcause I can't tell the preacher I was drunkSo Lord have mercy on a no 'count sinnerGive me one more chance to let another guy win 'erCross my heart and I hope to dieI'll never, never, EVER tell another white lie.Be sure it's true when you say "I love you"It's a sin to tell a lieMillions of hearts have been brokenJust because these words were spokenI love you, yes I do, I love youIf you break my heart I'll dieSo be sure it's true when you say "I love you"It's a sin to tell a lie
