Intro: () Daddy doesn't pray anymore Guess he's finished talkin' to the Lord He used to fold his ha-nds and bow his head down to the floor Daddy doesn't pray any-more I re-member even when the ti-mes were bad He'd thank Jesus for everything he had A good wife and three chil-dren, the food upon our plates yeah, everything was right when he said grace (Chorus) There was a time when we didn't ge-t along 'Cause I thought I was right, and he was wrong Still-when I'd lay down at-night, I'd hear him get-down on his knees And say a little prayer fo-r me (Chorus) To-day, I followed Daddy down to church Listened to the preacher read God's words And-we sang his favorite hymn, but Daddy didn't make a sound And-this-afternoon we'll lay him in the ground (Chorus)
