The Christian Life

The Byrds The Christian Life written by Charlie & Ira Louvin

My buddies tell me that I should have waited

They say I'm missing a whole world of fun

But I still love them and I sing with pride

I like the Christian life

I won't lose a friend while heeding God's call

For what is a friend who wants you to fall

Others find pleasures in things I despise

I like the Christian life

My buddies shun me since I turned to Jesus

They say I'm missing a whole world of fun

I live without them walking the line

I like the Christian life

I won't lose a friend while heeding God's call

For what is a friend who wants you to fall

Others find pleasures in things I despise

I like the Christian life
