It's A Sin To Tell A Lie - Fats Waller & His Rhythm

Be sure it’s true when you say «I love you»

It’s a sin to tell a lie

Millions of heart 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

Now, ya better be sure that it’s true when you say «I love ya.»

Honey chile, don’tcha know it’s a sin to tell a lie?

Whole lotta hearts have

been

Broken.

Ya know why they were broken?

Just for these foolish little words that

Were spoken.

Ya know what they were?

«I love ya, I love ya.»

Darlin', ya know

Doggone well I LUV ya and if ya break my heart I’ve GOT to die.

So ya better be

Sure that it’s true when you come runnin' up here sayin' «I love ya»

'cause it’s a sin

To tell a lie

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
