Pray to Jesus

Pray To Jesus - Brandy Clark

We live in trailers and apartments too

From California to Kalamazoo

Grow up get married and when that one ends

We hate sleeping alone so we get married again

Don't wanna be buried in debt or in sin

So we pray to Jesus and we play the lotto

Cause there ain't but two ways

We can change tomorrow

And there ain't no genie

And there ain't no bottle

So we pray to Jesus and we play the lotto

We love to complain about what we can't fix

Mostly mothers in law traffic and politics

We tell our kids how hard it was back when

Same way our parents did to us back then

Thought we'd be different but we're just like them

Yeah we pray to Jesus and we play the lotto

Cause there ain't but two ways

We can change tomorrow

And there ain't no genie

And there ain't no bottle

So we pray to Jesus and we play the lotto

We load our kids up in our new used car

And after church we hit the mini mart

Behind the counter up there on the wall

It reads 200 million on the power ball

Six little numbers that could change it all

So we pray to Jesus and we play the lotto

Cause there ain't but two ways

We can change tomorrow

And there ain't no genie

And there ain't no bottle

So we pray to Jesus and we play the lotto

Like a bumper sticker

Like a poor man's motto

Times are tough

And our time is borrowed so we

Pray to Jesus and we play the lotto
