It's Better To Believe

It's Better to Believe - Clifford T. Ward

I've got a very simple philosophy

It seldom stands me in good stead

But even though there

Are some who agree

It is the right way let is spread:

It's better to believe

And be wrong

Than to suspect and be right

It's better to believe

And be wrong

Than to suspect and

Be right

It's better to believe

And be wrong

Than to suspect and be right

It's better to believe, to believe.

Somebody told me they

Saw Mary Jane

Walkin' with a guy she loved

Before she met me

And you might ask would

I trust her again

And my reply would certainly be:

It's better to believe

And be wrong

Than to suspect and be right

It's better to believe

And be wrong

Than to suspect and be right

It's better to believe and be wrong

Than to suspect and be right

It's better to believe, to believe.

It's better to believe what you

Know the situation ought to be

It's better to believe than to go

On findin' faults in everyone you see

Who you see.

And so my simple philosophy

Points at the politician

And the soldier's gun

And I would say that the

World might be

A safer place without suspicion.

It's better to believe

And be wrong

Than to suspect and be right

It's better to believe

And be wrong

Than to suspect and

Be right

It's better to believe

And be wrong

Than to suspect and be right

It's better to believe, to believe.

It's better to believe, to believe

It's better to believe, to believe

La la la la.
