Cross My Heart - Sonny Boy Williamson II

If you cross your heart to someone

You’re not supposed to tell a lie

If you cross your heart to someone

You’re not supposed to tell a lie

Before you say a wrong

Or either do wrong

It have to be so long

Or either goodbye

The first time I crossed my heart

I was by your bedside on my knees

Yes, the first time I crossed my heart

I was by your bedside down on my knees

Sure enough, may (spoke)

And I know the difference between

I knew I’d have to beg you

Please, darlin', help me please

I cross my heart

For you’re the one, yes I know

I cross my heart to you

To you baby, because I know

There’s no one else, I know

Anything you tell me to do

I have to do it or I’ll have to go
