Forgive me girls but I must sin
I took your sister for a ride
Next morning she turned up as my bride
Forgive me girls but I must sin
I love you dear now and near
Yet your sister holds my collar
As she holds my ring finger to the fire
Forgive me girls but I must sin
You are my world my globe
You give me full climate experience with hope
Yet she keeps me warm through the night
As she holds me in her protected cellar at night
Forgive me girls but I must sin
I love your climates
I love the Sun
I love the Moon
I love the Stars
I love your sister
And most of all
I love to sin
