Lyrics for Cross My Heart

Yeah, ain't that a pity, people ain't that a cryin' shame Ain't that a pity, I declare it's a cryin' shame She wait till it got nine below zero, and put me down for another man I give her all my money, all of my lovin' and everything All of my money, all of my lovin' and everything It done got nine below zero and she done put me down for another man Nine below zero, the little girl she done put me down Nine below zero, the little girl she done put me down She know I don't have nowhere to stay, and I don't have not one dime
