who can lay on back and say to yourself
say I don't need a prayer
Prayin' for you mother
Prayin' for my daddy
you see
when I was a little boy
we used to say a little prayer every night
before we went to sleep
and it went somthing like this
Now I lay me down to sleep
pray the Lord my soul to keep
If I should die before I wake (Every night before I go to sleep)
I pray the Lord my soul to take
I'm praying for my mama
prayin' for my daddy, no daddy, no daddy, no daddy, no
prayin' for my sister (huh)
prayin' for you brother
(brother)huh
I gotta say a prayer
for the rich man, poor man
beggar man, thief
The doctor, lawyer, and indian chief
One for the lame
why can't they walk
another for the mute
why can't they talk

Somebody tell me, somebody please
while I'm down here on my dog gone knees
I wanna say a prayer
say a prayer for my momma
one for my sister, my little sister
one for my brother
