The younger kids are sleeping mama's working nights

You are heavy on my mind so I just thought I'd write

Money's hard to come by outside of that we're fine

Little brother talks about you almost all the time

Every night I say a little prayer that he'll keep watching over you

I know you think that no one cares but daddy I love you



I've never once heard mama say who was right or wrong

I just came home from school one day and she told me you were gone

You may not want to come back home and if you never do

Daddy it won't change the way I feel I'll always love you

Every night I say a little prayer...

Every night I say a little prayer...
