I Pray For You (A Song)
Posted : 28 Mar, 2011 01:27 PM

The title of Mr. Wiseguy's poem reminded me of a tongue-in-cheek song I heard a while back. Enjoy!



I haven't been to church since I don't remember when

Things were going great til they fell apart again

So I listened to the preacher as he told me what to do

He said you cant go hating others who have done wrong to you.

Sometimes we get angry, but we must not condemn.

Let the good Lord do His job and you just pray for them.



I pray your brakes go out running down a hill

I pray a flowerpot falls from a window sill and knocks you in the head like I'd like to

I pray your birthday comes and nobody calls

I pray you're flying high when your engine stalls

I pray all your dreams never come true

Just know wherever you are honey, I pray for you



I'm really glad I found my way to church

'Cause I'm already feeling better and I thank God for his words

Yeah I'm gonna take the high road,

And do what the preacher told me to do,

You keep messing up and I'll keep praying for you.



I pray your tire blows out at 110.

I pray you pass out drunk with your best friend and wake up with his and hers tattoos.



I pray your brakes go out running down a hill.

I pray a flowerpot falls from a window sill and knocks you in the head like I'd like to.

I pray your birthday comes and nobody calls

I pray you're flying high when your engine stalls

I pray all your dreams never come true



Just know wherever you are, near or far, in your house or in your car, wherever you are honey, I pray for you

I pray for you



-- Jaron and the Long Road to Love

Haha! Love that song!!! The words by themselves just don't quite have the same effect as the video, though! :ROFL:

This reminded me of a song by little Jimmy Dickens:

One fine day as I was a-walkin' down the street

Spied a beggar man with rags upon his feet

Took a penny from my pocket

In his tin cup I did drop it

I heard him say as I made my retreat



CHORUS

"May the bird of paradise fly up your nose"

"May an elephant caress you with his toes"

"May your wife be plagued with runners in her hose"

"May the bird of paradise fly up your nose"



The laundry man is really on his toes

Found a hundred-dollar bill among my clothes

When he called me I came a-runnin'

Gave him back his dime for phonin'

I heard him sayin' as I turned to go



CHORUS



I was way behind one day to catch the train

Taxi driver said "We'll make it just the same"

The speed cop made it with us

And as he wrote out the ticket

I stood by politely a-waitin' for my change



CHORUS
