Carman - A Little Bit More Conviction

Oh I saw me a Christian man

with a cigarette in his hand,

he was smoking in front of the children at the fair.

He didn't care how it appeared,

he didn't show no Godly fear,

his witness could have been more than it had.



Well I saw two brothers go

to a sexy movie show,

laughin' as they passed with their friends.

"Entertainment," I don't care,

Saints don't belong in there,

I'm sick and tired, somehow it's got to end.



I'm tellin' you something's wrong,

when the holiness goes alone

in livin' day to day 'cause it ain't fun.

I wanna see me a Godly man

who's not afraid to stand

for what is right.



I wanna see me some, a little bit more conviction.



Well I saw sisters scantily dressed,

leaving nothing left to guess,

they go to a dancing club and get some beer.

While the parents watch TV,

the kids play in the streets.

What happened to the Bible and some prayer?



I'm tellin' you something's wrong,

when the holiness goes alone

in livin' day to day 'cause it ain't fun.

I wanna see me a Godly man

who's not afraid to stand

for what is right.



I wanna see me some, a little bit more conviction.

Conviction, Conviction. A little bit more conviction.

We need... Conviction. A little bit more conviction.

A little bit more conviction.



A little bit more,

I'm tellin' you something's wrong,

when the holiness goes alone

in livin' day to day 'cause it ain't fun.

I wanna see me a Godly man

who's not afraid to stand

for what is right.



I wanna see me some, a little bit more conviction.

A little bit more.
