Praying Lyrics
Praying - The Louvin Brothers
Praying praying for someone like me
Not long ago I was thinking of home
And I wondered if mama was there all alone
I thought I'd drop by as I done before
But the sound from within made me stop at the door
She was praying a sound that the world seldom hear
Praying her words were pleading and clear
The sound of her voice as she spoke my name
Brought tear to my eyes my heart filled with shame
Praying praying for someone like me
I was walking one night and I felt so alone
My heart was weary on the trouble I'd known
I had to notice a church that was near
Till the sound from within seemed to be very real
She was praying a sound that the world seldom hear
Praying the churning that god loves so dear
Outside in the darkness I could not see
When I could picture them out on their knees
Praying praying for someone like me
