Black Oak Arkansas

Let Us Pray

I was walkin' down the road a carryin'

The load that my father had a given me

The night before I packed and left the home

Of my childhood, home of my birth.

The place in the back of the store

Where we would work

Until the night time darkness

Brought the end of day

Now, Let Us Pray

When my brother was a kid

Well he often went and hid in the backyard

Settin' at the feet of my father

And my mother would appear

Oh to sooth away the fear

That my father had a started

Pretty soon the trouble parted

And while sittin' at the evenin' supper table

He'd say Now Let Us Pray!

Oh Pray For Me Burly

Now I travel all alone

A thinkin' of the home

That my Mom and Dad were given

In the times they were livin'

And the backyard swing and the happiness

Is bringin' out a whole bunch of presents

For the holiday

Remember Mom and Daddy

Are livin' and it's time now to say

Let Us Pray

Our Religion Is Music
