Cross my heart that I love her
Place no one up above her
Ooh-whoo, whoo, whoo
Doo-dood-hoo-ooh
I a-want a girl a-that's true (want a girl that's true)
To a-tell my troubles to (tell my troubles to)
Lord, why don't you send her right to me?
Great God almighty, child, I said it right now
This fat boy's gonna love her
Place no one up above her
Don't a-you know I said
Ooh-whoo, whoo, whoo

On a-my knees every day (on my knees every day)
To a-heaven above, I pray (heaven above, I pray)

Every a-day of my life (every day of my life)
I want her to be my wife (want her to be my wife)
Oh, Lord, hear me

Place no one up above her

Don't a-you know?
Baby, little girl, I said, I cross my heart to you
Don't you know, my darling
Don't you know myself how much
How much I'm really in love with you
Don't you know I said we'll never part?
So please don't ever break up my heart
Oh, my darling, that's it about life
Don't you know I said cross
Said-a I cross a-my heart to a-you, oh girl
