It’s A Sin To Tell A Lie John Denver

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, I hope to die
I'll never, never, never tell another white lie
Took a little girl out on a date last night
Next to her Gramma 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 altar, I'm sunk
Cause I cannot tell the preacher I was drunk
So Dear Lord have mercy on a no account sinner
Give me one more chance to let another guy win her

Cross my heart, I hope to die
I'll never, never, never, tell one more time
I'll never tell another white lie
O-lee-o-lee-o-lee-o
