Now the Lord, he'll forgive you for cheating

And the Lord, he'll forgive you if you lie-ie

Yes, he'll forgi-ive and he'll help you to li-ive

But he sure frowns down soundly on you and I



It must be a si-in when you love somebo-ody

Damned if you don't, twice damned if you do

It must be a si-in when you love somebody

As much as I'm lovin' you-ou-ou



Now the Lord, he's known, and for his kindness

He's always willing to set a sinner free (set a sinner free-ee)

He'll save your sou-ou-oul and he'll ma-hake you whole

But I don't see no angels comin' down

Shinin' their light on you and me



It must be a si-in when you love somebody

Damned if you don't, twice damned if you do

It must be a si-in when you lo-hove somebo-ody

As much as I'm lovi-in' you...
