a little faith

he does everything he can
to make headway with his plans
but he doesn't understand
life has its own way with you
stoplights changing on a busy street
he watches out for his own two feet
pressing on and over concrete
what else can he do

          he just needs a little faith
          in everything he does
          you ask him just because
          he needs a little inspiration
          he just needs a little faith
          in everything he'll do
          because he's just like you
          accept no imitation
          he just needs a little faith

he's learned everything he can
about being a man
making his own stand
but it ain't working
no what matter, down is up
and he's had enough
he's acting tough
inside he's hurting

          he just needs a little faith
          in everything he does
          you ask him just because
          he needs a little inspiration
          he just needs a little faith
          in everything he'll do
          because he's just like you
          accept no imitation
          he just needs a little faith
