Lyrics
Would You Pray for Me
© 2007 Teddie Cochran

I walked through the gate
And I slowly looked around
The choices I've made
My life I'm not proud
I'd run from the law
In damned near every town
A sinner of 30 years
Momma… would you pray for me

Momma… would you pray for me
Talk to the heavens and see
If the Lord our God
Might show a little mercy
And cleanse my soul
Show me a different road
Momma… would you pray for me

A man filled with hate
No sign of turnin' round
The rage in his face
When shackled and bound
I watched and I saw
The man I used to be
Clinging to this bible
Momma… would you pray for me

Momma… would you pray for me
Talk to the heavens and see
If the Lord our God
Might show a little mercy
And cleanse my soul
Show me a different road
Momma… would you pray for me

As you walked through the gate
To the man I couldn't see
Momma… would you pray for me

I walk through this prison gate
I glance about and see
The man I was
And how Mamma prayed for me
