Lynyrd Skynyrd - Keeping the Faith lyrics

(G. Rossington, E. King, J. Van Zant, D. Tate)

Are you a saint then don't be a stranger

Were you sent down from Heaven to show me the way

And if you ain't then I see a danger

You better take a minute and hear what I've got to say

(chorus)

'Cause I'll keep on tryin' to put it straight to you

You better give it straight to me

'Cause most women seem to have a good time

Makin' a fool out of me

I'm keepin' my faith I've made up my mind

I've got nothin' left to lose just lay it on the line

I'm keepin' my faith yea I'll find the one

Who won't steal me blind who won't turn and run

I'm keepin' my faith I'm trustin' in you

So don't treat me like those other ones do

Ain't no gettin' 'round it tell me to my face

Do you think I'm a fool for keepin' my faith in you

I'll treat you right I'll do you better

I won't disappoint you I won't make you cry

My friends tell me if you let her

She'll empty your pockets she'll spend you dry

(repeat chorus twice)
