Still Got A Prayer Lyrics - Singles - Billy Falcon

As my daddy lay there on Omaha beach 

It didn't look good for my brothers and me 

There were twenty-four hours on that longest day 

Now ten thousand crosses, scar the beach where they lay 

Under machine gun fire 

On that blood day called D 

Back home a young girl was praying 

God bring him home for me 

Oh, when you reach out and nobody's there 

You scream and shout, no one seems to care 

When you think you've got nothing left to hold on to 

When you cry out and nobody hears 

Just fear and doubt, all you've left is tears 

When you think you've got nothing left to hold on to 

You've still got a prayer, you've still got a prayer 

You've still got a prayer 

When my mother was born on that South Brooklyn street 

It didn't look good for my brothers and me 

Born in the back of a store that sold cigars and candy 

Cold she lay crying and, and that's the way it would be 

Oh, when you reach out and nobody's there 

You scream and shout, no one seems to care 

When you think you've got nothing left to hold on to 

When you cry out and nobody hears 

Just fear and doubt, all you've left is tears 

When you think you've got nothing left to hold on to 

You've still got a prayer, you've still got a prayer 

You've still got a prayer, you've still got a prayer 

You've still got a prayer 

She took her last breath and I kissed her goodbye 

Walked down that hospital hall trying so hard not to cry 

As he took his last breath on Calvary's tree 

It didn't look good, no there wasn't much hope 

For my brothers and me 

Oh, when you reach out and nobody's there 

You scream and shout, no one seems to care 

When you think you've got nothing left to hold on to 

When you cry out and nobody hears 

Just fear and doubt, all you've left is tears 

When you think you've got nothing left to hold on to 

You've still got a prayer, you've still got a prayer 

You've still got a prayer, you've still got a prayer 

You've still got a prayer, you've still got a prayer 

You've still got a prayer, you've still got a prayer 

You've still got a prayer, you've still got a prayer 

You've still got a prayer
