Charlie Worsham - How I Learned To Pray Lyrics
When I was sixteen, that set of keys was a pair of wingsDaddy, pretty please, can I take a ride tonight?I swear I won't get her over fifty-five.Was Back in Black racing through my veins, last thing I thoughtWas a flip in this thing gonna get me killed.I'm pretty sure my old man will.And seeing his face when the wrecker hauled my freedom awayThat's how I learned to pray.It wasn't in a church, with a chapter and a verseSome preacher made sure everybody heardOr just some words somebody taught me to say.I was living like I was (?), mama always saidIt'd take a special girl to get a hold of me,But I never let one get close to me.The man upstairs must've heard her prayer,Cause I looked up, you were standin' there waitin' on meLike you were made for me.And I knew right then and there, I'd been savedAnd that's how I learned to pray.It wasn't in a church, with a chapter and a verseSome preacher made sure everybody heardOr just some words somebody taught me to say.I can fold my hands and bow my head,But there's just some things that can't be saidWithout a little walk on water kind of faith.And that's how I learned to pray.Have you ever looked up at the stars in the sky, felt a tug at your heartDidn't know why but you just knewSomeone is up there lookin' out for you.Well you know just what I mean when I say Grace.That's how I learned to pray.That's how I learned to pray.
