Daddy Doesn't Pray Anymore

Intro: () () ()   Daddy doesn’t pray anymore   Guess he’s finished talkin’ to the Lord   He used to fold his ha-nds and bow his head down to the floor   Daddy doesn’t pray any-more   I re-member even when the ti-mes were bad   He’d thank Jesus for everything he had   A good wife and three chil-dren the food upon our plates   yeah everything was right when he said grace   (Chorus)   There was a time when we didn’t ge-t along   ’Cause I thought I was right and he was wrong   Still-when I’d lay down at-night I’d hear him get-down on his knees   And say a little prayer fo-r me   (Chorus)   To-day I followed Daddy down to church   Listened to the preacher read God’s words    And-we sang his favorite hymn but Daddy didn’t make a sound   And-this-afternoon we’ll lay him in the ground   (Chorus)
