Lyrics and translation

Original

Drinking dark whiskey and telling white lies.

One leads to another on a Saturday night.

Don't you cross your heart, unless you hope to die.

Drinking dark whiskey and telling white lies.

The first drop burns, but the second one goes down smooth.

Then that old black label gets ahold of you.

It'll loosen your tongue, but it never tells the truth.

Drinking dark whiskey and telling white lies.

One leads to another on a Saturday night.

Don't you cross your heart, unless you hope to die.

Drinking dark whiskey and telling white lies.

When the bottle starts talking, be careful what he might say.

He talks in the dark like he never would in the day.

Then he gets into trouble just as soon as he gets away.

Drinking dark whiskey and telling white lies.

One leads to another on a Saturday night.

Don't you cross your heart, unless you hope to die.

Drinking dark whiskey and telling white lies. Yes, sir.

A little white lie don't mean anyone no good.

When it's making the rounds all over the neighborhood.

Next thing you know, you're all misunderstood.

Drinking dark whiskey and telling white lies.

One leads to another on a Saturday night.

Don't you cross your heart, unless you hope to die.

Drinking dark whiskey and telling white lies.

Drinking dark whiskey and telling white lies.

Telling white lies.

Just telling white lies.
