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 Oh
can I get an amen Oh
somebody somebody said a prayer somebody said a prayer somebody somebody said a prayer
