My Only Prayer Lyrics by Chris Knight
Chris Knight Lyrics
Well im a country boy, im outta place, turned city bum
A good day to me is gettin' by
I walk a city mile, without ever seein' the sun
Theres no need to reach for stars, when you cant see the sky
Well its a god forsaken city, im so called livin' in
We're tryin' to keep from dyin' in it seems
Hope i never have to learn to breathe this dirt, death and sin
Here and now its just my prison, but someday is my dream
Chorus:
Someday ill go back to kentucky
And breathe that cool green river air
I hope and pray that ill get lucky
And go back to gods country, thats my only prayer
I try to find a friendly face, to help me pass some time
But i think i left them all in my hometown
And id lay down in some green grass and ease my clouded mind
But these crowded streets go on and on and i cant find the ground
Repeat chorus
The wind blows off the freight yard, sings a lonesome chord
Hung me like a cheap souvenier
Theres a man down by the mission says do you wanna know the lord?
Yes i wanna know him, but i dont believe he's here
Repeat chorus
Thats my only prayer
