Pray Sister Pray

(album: The Whole World's Got The Blues - 2014)

Hey, sister, did you hear that
Billy Rose ain't never been found?
Went missing on the fourth of June
Family hasn't heard a sound
Jim Croe met her walking
That night by Beach Road
Said she was meeting friends downtown
But then she never showed

And nobody knows, hey, hey
Where did she go? Hey, hey
Someone has to know, hey, hey
Where did she go? Hey, hey

So, sisters, please, please pray
Don't let them fade away
We're gonna raise our voices
They're gonna hear us scream
'Til we're all wide awake and
This is all just a real bad dream
Pray, sisters, please, please, pray
Pray, sisters, please, please, pray

So now the newsman said
She was a runaway all along
But we all know better 'round here
They're just glad that another one's gone
Someone's got a secret
They're too scared to tell
All this coincidence
And the truth just won't prevail

And nobody knows, hey, hey
Where did she go? Hey, hey
Someone has to know, hey, hey
Where did they go? Hey, hey

So, sisters, please, please pray
Don't let them fade away
We're gonna raise our voices
They're gonna hear us scream
'Til we're all wide awake and
This is all just a real bad dream
Pray, sisters, please, please, pray
Pray, sisters, please, please, pray
So, sisters, please, please pray
Don't let them fade away
We're gonna raise our voices
They're gonna hear us scream
'Til we're all wide awake and
This is all just a real bad dream
Pray, sisters, please, please, pray
Pray, sisters, please, please, pray
Pray, sisters, please, please, pray

Please pray
Please pray
Please pray
Please pray
Please pray
Please pray
Please pray now
Please pray
Please pray
(Pray, sister, pray, pray)
(Pray, sister)
(Pray, sister)
