Jail House Prayers © Brian Straub 6/19/15, 10/23/15, 12/21/15, 1/2/16

Oh God, I’m on my knees again
Can you remember a time when
I wasn’t asking you for help
For myself

Won’t you make all my troubles disappear
Help me figure out why I’m even here
I’m still asking you help
For myself

Chorus

And all I’ve got are these jail house prayers
And my own personal chorus of naysayers
In my head jail house prayers in my head
Jail house prayers

I’m talking money, women, music, and happiness
Detangle my life out of this here mess
I can’t stop asking you for help
For myself

Instrumental Verse

Oh lord, I’m on my knees again
Damn, you turned your back on me again
How the hell do I ask you for help
For myself

Chorus
Repeat last line
