On a lost and lonely highway
paying for my sins
If heaven saw me out last Friday
then I ain't getting in
I'm getting used to gettin' sideways
Till I can't see straight
Them angels know they don't look my way
I'm way too gone to save

I'm diggin' my grave down twelve feet deep
Got nothing left, so I'm on my knees begging

Somebody say a prayer for me
'Cause the pills ran out
and I still can't sleep (hey!)
Somebody send a word upstairs
'Cause the bar's shut down and I'm God knows where
Oh, should knock on heaven's door
'Cause mine ain't working anymore
Somebody say a prayer for me
All I'm asking for is a little mercy

A-men! (A-ay! A-ay!)
A-men! (A-ay! A-ay!)
Amen!

In a dusty silverado running low on grace
Heading nowhere fast with my feet up on the dash
Just hoping I see the day
I ain't ashamed of the man in the mirror
And the man upstairs ain't either
And I can finally set my life straight
And be the man my mama raised

Instead of diggin' my grave down twelve feet deep
I got nothing left, so I'm on my knees saying

Somebody say a prayer for me
'Cause the pills ran out
and I still can't sleep (hey!)
Somebody send a word upstairs
'Cause the bar's shut down and I'm God knows where
Oh, should knock on heaven's door
'Cause mine ain't working anymore
Somebody say a prayer for me
All I'm asking for is a little mercy

A-men! (A-ay! A-ay!)
A-men! (A-ay! A-ay!)
Amen! (Somebody say, somebody say)

Somebody say a prayer for me (ay!)
Amen
Somebody say a prayer for me

Somebody say a prayer for me
'Cause the pills ran out
and I still can't sleep (hey!)
Somebody send a word upstairs
'Cause the bar's shut down and I'm God knows where
Oh, should knock on heaven's door
'Cause mine ain't working anymore
Somebody say a prayer for me
All I'm asking for is a little mercy
Amen

A-ay! A-ay! (Somebody say, somebody say a prayer for me)
Amen
A-ay! A-ay! (Somebody say, somebody say a prayer for me)
Amen

A-ay! A-ay!
Amen
A-ay! A-ay!
Amen
