Who did you say it was brother who was it fell by the way
When whiskey and blood ran together did you hear anyone pray
When I heard the crash on the highway I knew what is was from the start
I went to the scene of destruction a picture was stamped on my hreart
I didn't hear nobody pray dear brother I didn't hear nobody pray
I've heard the crash on the highway but I didn't hear nobody pray
The whiskey and blood ran together mixed up with the glass where they lay
Fate Played her hand in destruction but I didn't hear nobody pray
I wish I could change this sad story that I am now telling you
But there is no way I can change it somebody's life is now through
I didn't hear nobody pray...
