Black Oak Arkansas - Let Us PrayLyrics

[Chorus] I was walkin' down the road a carryin' The load that my father had a given me The night before I packed and left the home Of my childhood, home of my birth. The place in the back of the store Where we would work Until the night time darkness Brought the end of day Now, Let Us Pray When my brother was a kid Well he often went and hid in the backyard Settin' at the feet of my father And my mother would appear Oh to sooth away the fear That my father had a started Pretty soon the trouble parted And while sittin' at the evenin' supper table He'd say Now Let Us Pray! Oh Pray For Me Burly [Chorus] Now I travel all alone A thinkin' of the home That my Mom and Dad were given In the times they were livin' And the backyard swing and the happiness Is bringin' out a whole bunch of presents For the holiday Remember Mom and Daddy Are livin' and it's time now to say Let Us Pray Our Religion Is Music
