| When I was sixteen, that set of keys was a pair of wings
|
| Daddy, 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 thought
|
| Was 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 away
|
| That’s how I learned to pray
|
| It wasn’t in a church, with a chapter and a verse
|
| Some preacher made sure everybody heard
|
| Or just some words somebody taught me to say
|
| I was living like I was (?), mama always said
|
| It’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 me
|
| Like you were made for me
|
| And I knew right then and there, I’d been saved
|
| And that’s how I learned to pray
|
| It wasn’t in a church, with a chapter and a verse
|
| Some preacher made sure everybody heard
|
| Or 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 said
|
| Without 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 heart
|
| Didn’t know why but you just knew
|
| Someone 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 |
