=======================================

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
and I hope to die
I'll never, never,
ever tell another white lie
Took a little doll out
on a date last night
Next to her, Gravel Gertie
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,
then I'm sunk
cause I can't tell
the preacher I was drunk
So Lord have mercy
on a no count sinner
Give me one more chance
to let another guy win her
Cross my heart
and I hope to die
I'll never, never,
never tell another white lie

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

So never, never, never
tell another white lie

I'll never tell another white lie
