daddy doesn't pray anymore
i guess he's finished talkin to the lord
he used to fold his hands and
bow his head down to the floor
but daddy doesn't pray anymore
i remember even when the times were bad
he thanked jesus for everything he had
for a good wife and three children
and the food upon our plates
yeah everything was right
when he said grace
daddy doesn't pray anymore
i guess he's finished talkin to the lord
he used to fold his hands and
bow his head down to the floor
but daddy doesn't pray anymore
there was a time
when we didn't get along
cause i thought i was right
and he was wrong
still when i laid down at night
i'd hear him get down on his knees
and say a little prayer for me
daddy doesn't pray anymore
i guess he's finished talkin to the lord
he used to fold his hands and
bow his head down to the floor
but daddy doesn't pray anymore
instrumental break
today i followed daddy down to church
and listened to the preacher
read god's word
we sang his favorite hymn but
daddy didn't make a sound
this afternoon we'll lay him
in the ground
daddy doesn't pray anymore
i guess he's finally
walkin with the lord
he used to fold his hands and
bow his head down to the floor
but daddy doesn't pray anymore
