Say a Prayer
Man at the store asked me if I knew Jesus
I said, "I used to, man, but we ain't talked in years"
He offered me a ride to church on Sunday
I said, "I would, man, but Saturday night will interfere"
Sister on the phone called me a degenerate
I said, "That's okay, I'll see you on Thanksgiving"
Even momma's given up hope
Used to call me crying, just made me feel more alone
Say a prayer for me
Everyone including myself knows what I need
But I'm too damn proud to hit my knees
Say a prayer for me
When I'm digging a hole, looking for sun
I wish I knew how to function and still have fun
Say a prayer for me
Sometimes I wipe the dust off that leather
Run my fingers across those red letters
But I never make it past the second verse
Like the songs I write about the dreams I've cursed
Say a prayer for me
Everyone including myself knows what I need
But I'm too damn proud to hit my knees
Say a prayer for me
When I'm digging a hole, looking for sun
I wish I knew how to function and still have fun
Say a prayer for me
Say a prayer for me
And I may find the light someday
But if I'm gonna get there tomorrow
Gonna need some help today
So, say a prayer for me
Everyone including myself knows what I need
But I'm too damn proud to hit my knees
Say a prayer for me
When I'm digging a hole, looking for sun
I wish I knew how to function and still have fun
Say a prayer for me
Say a prayer for me
I said, "I used to, man, but we ain't talked in years"
He offered me a ride to church on Sunday
I said, "I would, man, but Saturday night will interfere"
Sister on the phone called me a degenerate
I said, "That's okay, I'll see you on Thanksgiving"
Even momma's given up hope
Used to call me crying, just made me feel more alone
Say a prayer for me
Everyone including myself knows what I need
But I'm too damn proud to hit my knees
Say a prayer for me
When I'm digging a hole, looking for sun
I wish I knew how to function and still have fun
Say a prayer for me
Sometimes I wipe the dust off that leather
Run my fingers across those red letters
But I never make it past the second verse
Like the songs I write about the dreams I've cursed
Say a prayer for me
Everyone including myself knows what I need
But I'm too damn proud to hit my knees
Say a prayer for me
When I'm digging a hole, looking for sun
I wish I knew how to function and still have fun
Say a prayer for me
Say a prayer for me
And I may find the light someday
But if I'm gonna get there tomorrow
Gonna need some help today
So, say a prayer for me
Everyone including myself knows what I need
But I'm too damn proud to hit my knees
Say a prayer for me
When I'm digging a hole, looking for sun
I wish I knew how to function and still have fun
Say a prayer for me
Say a prayer for me
