When Mama Prayed Lyrics

I love this song, it tells my story to a T. Learn it and pass it on.
God Bless!

Daddy never went to church on Sunday
He said that's one thing I'll never do
But mama never gave up she said one day
su
He'll be sitting here beside me and you
I can still hear mama softly talking
with her tears falling on her folded hands
So that Easter Sunday Daddy walked in
That's when I began to understand
Chorus:
When mama prayed, good things happen
When mama prayed, lives were changed
Not much more than five foot tall
But mountains big and small, crumbled all away
When mama prayed
Seventeen and wild I hit the bottle
Doing anything I dang well pleased
Burning down life's highway at full throttle
While mama burned a candle on her knees
Then one night I came home half sober
I saw mama kneeling in the den
As I listened, her and Jesus talked it over
su
And I knew my restless days were 'bout to end
Chorus:
When mama prayed, good things happen
When mama prayed, lives were changed
Not much more than five foot tall
But mountains big and small, crumbled all away
When mama prayed
Bridge:
It isn't like everyone of them got answered
But the times they weren't it seems to me were rare
You almost felt sorry for the devil
Cause heaven knows he didn't have a prayer
When mama prayed
us
Not much more than five foot tall
But mountains big and small, crumbled all away
When mama prayed
su
They crumbled all away
When Mama Prayed
