the phone rings ... who could it be
|
that religious guy from brooklyn
|
did we meet by accident ... yes we did
|
did we communicate ... i guess we did
|
he says i pray throughout my salesman's day
|
stay late at a bar and i hey hey hey
|
|
his wife doesn't like him ... six kids he's got
|
the holy thing has him tied in a knot
|
he thinks i'm lucky and free
|
to be who i am unashamed or guilty
|
but i pray as every sinner may
|
the deep down blues won't go away ... go away
|
|
high above way up in the sky
|
is there a good guy or anybody watching down
|
help is on the way but you don't know when
|
there's nothing to say
|
just don't go all the way around the bend
|
|
goodnight
|
put your head away
|
reach across ... turn off the light
|
soon you fall into a dream
|
far in the distance a fade away scream
|
i pray that we will be all right
|
thanks again ... we were alive today
|
