When I need somebody to lead me by the hand You help me find a higher plane, you help me understand Help me find a sanctuary to keep my feelings save And lead me through another day with undivided faith Help me mama to spread the real faith... Start with good intentions strictly for the lord And see that wealth and luxury helps to spread the holy word The lord hath given TV sets to get the message through And all I want in lieu is a healthy cheque from you Help me mama to spread the real faith Tell the children the TV ain't save So help me mama to spread the real faith Don't you know we got the real faith We already got the real faith... Sometimes I wonder what I'm gonna do Deviance and mortal sin bring anger from above The eye of the lord saw me with a less than gilded dove It's what those fools out there can't see that puts the blame on you And mamma now don't prey for me this cheating live is through Help me mama to spread the real faith Tell the children the TV ain't save So help me mama to spread the real faith Don't you know we got the real faith We already got the real faith...
