Be sure it's [bad word] 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 [bad word] When you say I love you
It's a sin to tell a lie

(spoken interlude)
Be sure it's [bad word] when you say I love ya, honey.
Because you got sense enough to know it's a sin to tell a lie.
whole lotta folks' hearts have done been broken
Just over a whole lotta foolish words that were spoken.

I love you, yes I do, I love you
If you break my heart I'll die

So be sure it's [bad word] When you say I love you
It's a sin to tell a lie
