Blackberry Smoke - Prayer for the Little Man lyrics
[Blackberry Smoke - Prayer for the Little Man lyrics]
Calling home on the phone like a lifeline
Let the voices fill me up
Like a drunkard's wine another fix, I'm fine
Hang it up, kill the light and just lay there
Think about that girl, we had it all I swear
Yeah we thought it'd last forever
Then we finalize but don't matter where I am
Every night when I close my eyes
Say a prayer for the little man
'Cause he's gonna need a helping hand
Now and then and I won't be around
Can you just let me know
There's an angel looking down?
Say a prayer for a mother's love
Yeah I hope that it'll be enough
'Cause, I know that it's tough
And he don't understand
Say a prayer for the little man mmm mmm
I remember my daddy's phone calls
Just a kid
I'd always talk to him out in the hall
Keep from setting Mama off
So I've been right in your shoes, son
Never thought, in a million years
I'd ever be the one who
Thought it'd last forever then we finalize
But every night when I close my eyes
Say a prayer for the little man
'Cause he's gonna need a helping hand
Now and then and I won't be around
Can you just let me know
There's an angel looking down?
Say a prayer for a mother's love
Yeah I hope that it'll be enough
'Cause, I know that it's tough
And you don't understand
Say a prayer for the little man, yeah
Say a prayer for the little man
'Cause he's gonna need a helping hand
Now and then and I won't be around
Can you just let me know
There's an angel looking down?
Say a prayer for a mother's love
Yeah I hope that it'll be enough
'Cause, I know that it's tough
And he don't understand
Say a prayer for the little man
(For the little man)
A prayer for the little man
(For the little man)
A prayer for the little man oh, yeah
Mmm-mmm
Let the voices fill me up
Like a drunkard's wine another fix, I'm fine
Hang it up, kill the light and just lay there
Think about that girl, we had it all I swear
Yeah we thought it'd last forever
Then we finalize but don't matter where I am
Every night when I close my eyes
Say a prayer for the little man
'Cause he's gonna need a helping hand
Now and then and I won't be around
Can you just let me know
There's an angel looking down?
Say a prayer for a mother's love
Yeah I hope that it'll be enough
'Cause, I know that it's tough
And he don't understand
Say a prayer for the little man mmm mmm
I remember my daddy's phone calls
Just a kid
I'd always talk to him out in the hall
Keep from setting Mama off
So I've been right in your shoes, son
Never thought, in a million years
I'd ever be the one who
Thought it'd last forever then we finalize
But every night when I close my eyes
Say a prayer for the little man
'Cause he's gonna need a helping hand
Now and then and I won't be around
Can you just let me know
There's an angel looking down?
Say a prayer for a mother's love
Yeah I hope that it'll be enough
'Cause, I know that it's tough
And you don't understand
Say a prayer for the little man, yeah
Say a prayer for the little man
'Cause he's gonna need a helping hand
Now and then and I won't be around
Can you just let me know
There's an angel looking down?
Say a prayer for a mother's love
Yeah I hope that it'll be enough
'Cause, I know that it's tough
And he don't understand
Say a prayer for the little man
(For the little man)
A prayer for the little man
(For the little man)
A prayer for the little man oh, yeah
Mmm-mmm
