Chris Stapleton – Daddy Doesn’t Pray Anymore

Chris Stapleton: Daddy Doesn't Pray Anymore Lyrics

[chorus]
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

[verse 1]
I remember even when the times were bad
He thanked jesus for everything he had
For a good wife and three children
And the food upon our plates
Yeah, everything was right when he said, grace

[chorus]

[verse 2]
There was a time when we didn’t get along
Cause i thought i was right and he was wrong
Still when i laid down at night
I’d hear him get down on his knees
And say a little prayer for me

[chorus]

[outro]
Today i followed daddy down to church
And listened to the preacher read god’s word
We sang his favorite hymn but daddy didn’t make a sound
This afternoon we’ll lay him in the ground
But daddy doesn’t pray anymore
I guess he’s finally walking with the lord
He used to fold his hands and bow his head down to the floor
But daddy doesn’t pray anymore
