Lyrics:
She can't make him lay that bottle downTry and turn his life aroundTalk to her preacher or go and get some helpShe could never leave himShe knows that that would kill himBut she can't save someoneWho don't want to save themselvesBut she can say a prayerSomeone is always listeningA few words here and thereCan make a mighty differenceFor heaven sakes she can't makeThat mountain disappear into the airBut she can say a prayerFootball team all shave their headsJust so they would look like themPut on their jerseys and ease into his roomThey all joined hands around his bedClose their eyes and bowed their headThey can't put him back in the gameOr bring him back to schoolBut they can say a prayerSomeone is always listeningA few words here and thereCan make a mighty differenceFor Heaven sakes those kids can't makeThat mountain disappear into the airBut they can say a prayerWe might stop a war, cure one diseaseKeep one kid off the streetIf we take the time to get down on our kneesAnd say a prayerSomeone is always listeningA few words here and thereCan make a mighty differenceFor heaven sakes we can't make livesMountain disappear into the airBut we can say a prayer
