"Love And Honor" Lyrics

(Merle Haggard)

Love and honor a promise to obey
Sacred vows that we both made yesterday
But when someone tempted you you ease to cross the line
And I'll bet love and honor never cross your mind.

You're the woman that once gave me her hand
And I'm the fool who's tryin' hard to understand
Why when someone tempted you you were so inclined
And I'll bet love and honor never cross your mind.

Love and honor never cross your mind
And love and honor is something hard to find
When someone tempted you you ease to cross the line
And I'll bet love and honor never cross your mind.

Love and honor never cross your mind
And love and honor is something hard to find
When someone tempted you you ease to cross the line
And I'll bet love and honor never cross your mind...
