Just a single mom raisin up the kids
Little Tommy's seven now and her daughter Justine just turned ten
Pinchin every cent laughin and lovin and content
You would never think a couple years ago she almost let her job,
her kids, her mind,
her life go up in smoke right there on the edge right before the fall

Chorus:
Somebody said a prayer somebody had some faith somebody
finally hit their knees and asked for help for heavens sake somebody
finally found someone who really cares somebody said a prayer

He was seventeen and his heart was broke.
The middle of the night, a bottle full of pills, and a goodbye note
Sittin on his bed, but then he bowed his head.
Now I see him every week and every now and then
he talks about that night.
And the peace that came over him talk about a sign.
Can I get an amen well there were tears on his face
he said look what happened lord

Chorus:
Somebody said a prayer
somebody had some faith somebody finally hit their knees and
asked for help for heavens sake somebody
finally found someone who really cares
somebody said a prayer

*Repeat chorus

Can I get an amen Ohhhhhhhh
can I get an amen Ohhhhhhhhhh
somebody somebody said a prayer somebody said a prayer
somebody somebody said a prayer
