Upright Man Songtext
von Mark Farner

You know that it′s hard sometimes
To make the right choice
But I found out
The Lord rewards me when I do
And in my mind, a still small voice
Whispering the right direction
Telling me the path to choose
And I wanna live the right way

I wanna be an upright man
I wanna be an upright man
And live my life
According to the master's plan
I wanna be an upright man
I wanna be an upright man
I wanna be an upright man
Livin′ like a child of the great I Am
I wanna walk straight
And be an upright man


You know there is a fine line
We're walking, my friend
And there are danger signs
For all to see
And it's about time we listen to Him
Lookin′ in the right direction
And be what He wants us to be
You know I wanna live the right way

I wanna be an upright man
I wanna be an upright man
And live my life
According to the master′s plan
I wanna be an upright man
I wanna be an upright man
I wanna be an upright man
Livin' like a child of the great I Am
I wanna walk straight
And be an upright man

I wanna be an upright man
Lord, I want to be an upright man
Upright man
For all the world to see, Your upright man
Upright man
Only wanna be an upright man
Upright man
Yours eternally, Your upright man
