It's A Personal Thing



The Press Conference

It's A Personal Thing, And I Find It Odd

You Would Question My Believing In A Personal God

I'm Devout, I'm Sincere, Ask My Mother If You Doubt It

I'm Religious, But I'd Rather Not Get Radical About It

The Old-time Believers Had Timidity And Grace

But This New Generation Doesn't Know Its Place

You're Entitled To Believe, But The Latest Gallup Poll

Says You Mustn't Interfere--that's The Government's Role



Chorus:

'Cause When You Throw Your Hat In The Bullring

Before You Know It's A Personal Thing

And When He Comes To The Day Of Reckoning

He's Gonna Tell 'em, "uh, Uh, Uh, It's A Personal Thing"



The Nomination Speech

It's A Personal Thing, And I Boldly State

That My Views On Morality Will Have To Wait

'til My Personal Life's Out Of The Public Eye

And The Limitations Statue Can Protect My Alibi

I'm Devout, I'm Sincere, And I'm Proud To Say

That It's Had Exactly No Effect On Who I Am Today

I Believe For The Benefit For All Manking

In The Total Separation Of Church And Mind



(chorus)



The Victory Night

It's A Personal Thing, And I Plainly Speak

(from The Same Code Of Ethics That I Held Last Week)

As I Promised If Elected This Election Day

With The Help Of God Almight...I'll Do It My Way



(chorus)
