mama's prayer

Lyrics

back when i was doing time there's a night i can't forget, a mad man with a knife in hand tried to kill me while i slept, but somehow the knife missed its mark and i pinned the raging man, somehow my mama's prayers had worked again, one night while we were driving across the mighty texas plains, a car pulled out with its headlights out head on into our lane, as deanrow swerved and missed the car i felt a mighty hand, somehow my mama's prayers had worked again, mama's prayers were always with me through the battlefields of life, she prayed for me and said amen in the name of jesus christ, from the death house in san quentin i walked away a better man, somehow my mama's prayers had worked again, mama's prayers were always with me through the battlefields of life, she prayed for me and said amen in the name of jesus christ, from the death house in san quentin i walked away a better man, somehow my mama's prayers had worked again
