Je score:
When mama prayed When mama prayed heaven paid attention The angels spread their wings and stood prepared Once again ole satan knew he'd been defeated 'Cause god had heard my dear old mama's prayer In my yester years of childhood My mama's talk 'bout having' fun Was sunday morning meeting time Every time those church bells rung After our family devotion at night Why she'd lead me up those stairs That's where first I heard the echo Of my dear old mama's prayers In this modern age of missiles Tanks, & ships, & guns When men believe There's just one way a war is ever won I've had that secret weapon That all the bombs cannot compare For I've won a thousand battles With my dear old mama's prayers When mama prayed ~ the angels up in heaven Would bow their heads and listen to her prayers They knew god heard and he would answer 'Cause her faith in god was real and she believed When mama prayed heaven paid attention The angels spread their wings and stood prepared Once again ole satan knew he'd been defeated 'Cause god had heard my dear old mama's prayer When my mama goes to heaven Leave me just one hand me down Teach me how to pray Just like my mama did. When mama prayed heaven paid attention The angels spread their wings and stood prepared Once again ole satan knew he'd been defeated 'Cause god had heard my dear old mama's prayer When my mama goes to heaven Leave me just one hand me down Teach me how to pray Just like my mama did. Just teach me how to pray Just like my mama did...
