Lyrics
You can't depend on your family
You can't depend on your friends
You can't depend on no beginning
You can't depend on no end
You can't depend on intelligence
Baby, you can't depend on any God
You can only depend on one thing, honey
You need a busload of faith to get by
Busload of faith to get by
Busload of faith to get by
Busload of faith to get by
Oh, you need a busload of faith to get by
You can depend on the worst always happening
You can depend on a murderer's drive
You can bet that if he rapes somebody
There'll be no trouble having a child
And you can bet that if she aborts it
Pro-lifers will attack her with rage
You can depend on the worst always happening
You need a busload of faith to get by
Hit it, Tony
Busload of faith to get by
Busload of faith to get by
Busload of faith to get by
Busload of faith to get by
You can't depend on the goodly hearted
The goodly hearted made lamp-shades and soap
You can't depend on the Sacrament
No Father, no Holy Ghost
You can't depend on any churches
Unless there's real estate you wanna buy
You can't depend on a lot of things
You need a busload of faith to get by
Busload of faith to get by
Busload of faith to get by
Busload of faith to get by
Busload of faith to get by
You can't depend on no miracle
You can't depend on the air
You can't depend on any wise man, you know why?
'Cause they ain't there
You can depend on cruelty
Crudity of thought and sound
You can depend on the worst always happening
You need a busload of faith to get by
Busload of faith to get by
Busload of faith to get by
Busload of faith to get by
Busload of faith to get by
Busload of faith to get by
Busload of faith to get by
Busload of faith to get by
You need a busload of faith to get by
