First time I crossed my heart
I was beggin' baby please
At your bedside Down on my knees
When I crossed my heart
When I crossed my heart
I crossed my heart Pretty baby over you
Second time I crossed my heart,
rain came in from the south
I was lyin' there with something
sweet and salty in my mouth
When I crossed my heart
When I crossed my heart
When I crossed my heart, pretty darlin', over you
Well you may think the world is black and white
And you're dirty or you're clean
You better watch out you don't slip
Through those spaces in between
Where the night gets sticky and the sky gets black
I grabbed you, baby, and you grabbed me back
And we crossed our hearts
We crossed our hearts
Yeah, I crossed my heart
Little boys, little girls,
they know their wrongs from their rights
Once you crossed your heart,
you ain't ever supposed to lie
Well life ain't nothin' but a cold, hard ride
I ain't leavin' till I'm satisfied
I cross my heart
Yeah I cross my heart
Well I cross my heart, pretty, darlin' over you
