My Only Prayer - Chris Knight

WELL IM COUNTRY BOY, IM OUTTA PLACE, TURNED CITY BUM

GOOD DAY TO ME IS GETTIN' BY

I WALK CITY MILE, WITHOUT EVER SEEIN' THE SUN

THERES NO NEED TO REACH FOR STARS, WHEN YOU CANT SEE THE SKY

WELL ITS GOD FORSAKEN CITY, IM SO CALLED LIVIN' IN

WE'RE TRYIN' TO KEEP FROM DYIN' IN IT SEEMS

HOPE I NEVER HAVE TO LEARN TO BREATHE THIS DIRT, DEATH AND SIN

HERE AND NOW ITS JUST MY PRISON, BUT SOMEDAY IS MY DREAM

 [bad word] 

SOMEDAY ILL GO BACK TO KENTUCKY

AND BREATHE THAT COOL GREEN RIVER AIR

I HOPE AND PRAY THAT ILL GET LUCKY

AND GO BACK TO GODS COUNTRY, THATS MY ONLY PRAYER

I TRY TO FIND FRIENDLY FACE, TO HELP ME PASS SOME TIME

BUT I THINK I LEFT THEM ALL IN MY HOMETOWN

AND ID LAY DOWN IN SOME GREEN GRASS AND EASE MY CLOUDED MIND

BUT THESE CROWDED STREETS GO ON AND ON AND I CANT FIND THE GROUND

REPEAT [bad word] 

THE WIND BLOWS OFF THE FREIGHT YARD, SINGS LONESOME CHORD

HUNG ME LIKE CHEAP SOUVENIER

THERES MAN DOWN BY THE MISSION SAYS DO YOU WANNA KNOW THE LORD?

YES I WANNA KNOW HIM, BUT I DONT BELIEVE HE'S HERE.

REPEAT [bad word] 

THATS MY ONLY PRAYER
