When A Cowboy Prays

[Verse 1: Brandon Lake]

Hangs his hat upon a tree

Bows his head, bends his knee

Only asks for what he needs, and Jesus listens

A little bread for today

A little water, little shade

To forgive just as he has been forgiven

[Chorus: Brandon Lake & Cody Johnson]

When a cowboy prays

It starts raining in Oklahoma

Long lost sons come home to momma

And those stubborn horses break

When a cowboy prays

It's a whisper and a rumble

And it's as strong as it is humble

This old world just ain't the same

When a cowboy prays

[Verse 2: Cody Johnson]

Folds his calloused hands together 'round a Bible bound in leather

Just as worn and just as weathered as the lines upon his face

All the horses in the stable, all his family around the table

All of Heaven listens in to every word he has to say

[Chorus: Cody Johnson & Brandon Lake]

When a cowboy prays

It starts raining in Oklahoma

Long lost sons come home to momma

And those stubborn horses break

When a cowboy prays

It's a whisper and a rumble

It's as strong as it is humble

This old world just ain't the same

When a cowboy prays

When a cowboy prays

[Bridge: Cody Johnson, Brandon Lake]

When a cowboy prays, it's for the grit and grace to get back up again

When a cowboy prays, it starts with thanks and ends in Jesus' Name, Amen

[Pre-Chorus: Brandon Lake, Cody Johnson]

When a cowboy prays, all of Heaven listens

When a cowboy prays, you don't wanna miss it

[Chorus: Brandon Lake & Cody Johnson]

When a cowboy prays

It starts raining in Oklahoma

Long lost sons come home to momma

And those stubborn horses break

When a cowboy prays

It's a whisper and a rumble

It's as strong as it is humble

This old world just ain't the same

When a cowboy prays

Oh, when a cowboy prays

[Outro: Brandon Lake]

When a cowboy prays
