(One) thou shalt never love another
(Two) but stand by me in all the while
(Three) the happiness with the heartaches
(Four) go through life wearing a smile

And how happy we will be
With the ten commandments of love
Love, of love

(Five) thou shalt always have faith in me
And in everything I say and do
(Six) love me with all your heart and soul
Until our life, you know our precious life on earth is through

And how happy we will be
With the ten commandments of love
Love, of love

Love, oh, sweet love
I said, it's oh, oh, so grand
But, yes it is
Such as you could find, I said, at the beginning of time
It has proved in all the land

I beg you (seven) come to me
When I am lonely
(Eight) kiss me when you hold me tight
(Nine) treat me, all you gotta do is just treat me
Treat me warm and tender
(Ten) gentle caresses and you always just do right
All you got to do right

And how happy we will be
With the ten commandments of love
Love, of love

And how happy we will be
With the ten commandments of love
