Lightnin' Hopkins - Sinner's Prayer lyrics

Yeah, my baby told me She was happy she could be Said, "I'm goin to church" She was gonna pray for me Go ahead Well let your power be true I said, "I may not being going to church But wherever I'm going, I'll be praying for you" I went church last night to call on me no break Fell on my knees, I forgot what to say But I pray, I pray just sitting down I said, I know she in this woods She's in this woods somewhere Well I got a happy in the preacher Gotta have it too He begin explainin' things to me What he want me to do He said, "You outta preach, instead of prayin Then you won't have to go by what the people's saying" I say, "Yeah, preacher I believe I will." I said, "I have a kingdom, and that's what it is" It may take a long time But happiness is gonna come They gonna say you can't I believe it can be done, yeah I really do I told my wife if she pray for me Baby, I'm gonna pray for you Yes I am She said, "I got something to tell you I want you to know, church houses a place That every someone needs to go" I said, "I'm going, but baby you should go too" Feel like you're gonna pray for me wherever I be I'm gonna pray for you too
