Pray for Me

[Verse 1]

I was stupid, really stupid

Something told me deep inside better not do it

What a dummy, such a dummy

To let some mess I shouldn't have did take you from me

Girl, if I could take it back, it'd be so back

I'd be such an angel

You'd think that me and Jesus was cool

Like that, just like that

Everything between us be good

[Pre-Chorus]

Girl, I know what I should have done

Should have walked away the moment that I saw her coming

But I blew it, really blew it

And lost the only girl I love

[Chorus]

Dear God if you're listening now

I need you do a thing for me

You see my baby, she done up and walked out

I need you bring her back to me

I know that I was wrong, I was guilty as sin

Probably not priority

But dear God if you're listening now

Down here, dying, begging, crying

Somebody need to pray for me

Mmm-hmm, mmm-hmm, mmm-hmm

Dear God if you're listening

Mmm-hmm, mmm-hmm, mmm-hmm...

[Verse 2]

Thought I was something, really something

In the end, who knew I'd end up with nothing?

I was fronting, truly fronting

Girl, I really can't be mad, I had it coming

Guess if I was half the man I know I am

I would be so good that even Oprah be jealous of you

It's like that, yeah, like that

Everything between us be good

[Pre-Chorus]

Girl, I know what I should have done

Should have walked away the moment that I saw her coming

But I blew it, really blew it

And lost the only girl I love

[Chorus]

Dear God if you're listening now

I need you do a thing for me

You see my baby, she done up and walked out

I need you bring her back to me

I know that I was wrong, I was guilty as sin

Probably not priority

But dear God if you're listening now

I'm down here, dying, begging, crying

Somebody oughta pray for me

[Bridge]

I'm making you this promise right now

If you can do this one thing for me

I'll be the man that you want

I'll be the man that you need

Church every Sunday

Prayers every Monday

Tuesday, and Wednesday, and Thursday and Friday

Just bring my baby back to me

[Chorus]

Dear God if you're listening now

I need you do a thing for me

You see my baby, she done up and walked out

I need you bring her back to me

I know that I was wrong, I was guilty as sin

Probably not priority

But dear God if you're listening now

I'm down here, dying, begging, crying

Somebody oughta pray for me

[Outro]

Oh, Lord, please listen to my cry, yeah

Bring my baby back to me

Oh God, oh oh...
