Now the Lord, he'll forgive you for cheating
And the Lord, he'll forgive you if you lie
Yes, he'll forgive and he'll help you to li-ive
But he sure frowns down soundly on you and I

It must be a sin when you love somebo-ody
Damned if you don't, twice damned if you do
It must be a sin when you love somebody
As much as I'm lovin' you

Now the Lord, he's known, and for his kindness
He's always willing to set a sinner free (set a sinner free
He'll save your soul and he'll make you whole
But I don't see no angels comin' down
Shinin' their light on you and me

It must be a sin when you love somebody
Damned if you don't, twice damned if you do
It must be a sin when you love somebody
As much as I'm lovin' you...
