Do You Swear

You call me sugarbaby but do you swear
 Do you swear, do you swear
 You call me sugarbaby but do you swear
 Do you swear on that
 And would you want to take a Bible oath
 And would you want to tell the Holy Ghost
 Would you put your faith in standing me by
 Darling would you testify?
 Are you full with truth or full with lie?
 Would you cross your heart and hope to die?
 Stick a pin needle in your eye
 Baby would you lie
 You call me sugarbaby but do you swear
 Do you swear on that
 You call me sugarbaby but do you swear
 Do you swear on that
 When the knife comes down will you turn to go
 Will you fold like the rose of Jericho?
 Sing my love song on your knees
 Do you pray to God or pray to me?
 Is your Rosary made of loyalty?
 Is your Cross made of veracity?
 Would you offer your soul to the sky?
 Baby would you lie?
 You call me sugarbaby but do you swear
 Do you swear, do you swear
 You call me sugarbaby but do you swear
 Do you swear on that
 You call me sugarbaby but do you swear
 Do you swear on that
 And so many lovers have left a space
 'Tween things they do and things they say
 A promise left to dangle gets scratched and frayed
 Words get tangled and memories play
 So many lovers have gone this way
 Trying to keep their hounds at bay
 How the earth got tender and hell did crack
 When Dante wanted his Beatrice back
 So would you want to take that Bible oath
 And would you want to tell the Holy Ghost
 Cross your heart and hope to die
 Baby would you lie
 You call me sugarbaby but do you swear
 Do you swear, do you swear
 You call me sugarbaby but do you swear
 Do you swear on that
 You call me sugarbaby but do you swear
 Do you swear
