Mama Say A Prayer Lyrics - Dolly Parton

The bright lights of the city are a pretty site to see. 

Perhaps they're extra pretty to a country girl like me. 

Temptation waits at every turn and it won't let me be. 

So mama, when you pray tonight, say a special prayer for me. 

I miss your tender good-night kiss 

Of love and understanding. 

The good-night kisses I get now, 

Are cruel and so demanding. 

So mama when you pray tonight, 

And while you're on your knees, 

Mama say a special prayer for me. 

The nights get cold and lonely when you're faraway from home, 

And lonely makes it easy for a good girl to go wrong. 

Evil eyes search through the night for lonely girls like me, 

So mama when you pray tonight, say a special prayer for me.

I miss your tender good-night kiss 

Of love and understanding. 

The good-night kisses I get now, 

Are cruel and so demanding. 

So mama when you pray tonight, 

And while you're on your knees, 

Mama say a special prayer for me.
