Daddy Doesn't Pray Lyrics

Daddy doesn't pray no more

I guess he's finished talking to the Lord

He used to fold his hands and bow his head down to the floor

But Daddy doesn't pray anymore



I remember even when the times were bad

He thanked Jesus for everything he had

A good wife and three children and the food upon his plate

Yeah everything was right when he said grace



Daddy doesn't pray anymore

I guess he's finished talking to the Lord

He used to fold his hands and bow his head down to the floor

But Daddy doesn't pray anymore



There was a time when daddy didn't get along

And I thought I was right and he was wrong

So when i lay down night I'd hear him get down on his knees

And say a little prayer for me



Daddy doesn't pray anymore

I guess he's finished talking to the Lord

He used to fold his hands and bow his head down to the floor

But Daddy doesn't pray anymore



Today I followed Daddy down to the church

And listened to the preacher read God's word

We sang his favorite hymns and Daddy didn't make a sound

That afternoon we laid him in the ground

Daddy doesn't pray anymore

I guess he's finished talking to the Lord

He used to fold his hands and bow his head down to the floor

But Daddy doesn't pray anymore
