Johnny Cash — 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 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 that 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, never tell another white lie Took my little girl out on a date last night Next to her Greta Gerty would have looked alright 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 and oh, how I lied Now she's getting set to be my blushing bride If she leads me to the alter I'm sunk 'Cause I can not tell the preacher I was drunk Lord have mercy on a no count 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 her one more time I'll never tell another white lie
