Mama Say a Prayer

The bright lights of the city are a pretty sight to see
 Perhaps they're extra pretty to a country girl like me
 Temptation waits at every turn and it won't let me be
 So, mama, when you pray tonight say a special prayer for me
 I miss your tender good night kiss of love and understandin'
 The good night kisses I get now are cruel and so demandin'
 So, mama, when you pray tonight and while you're on your knees
 Mama, say a special prayer for me
 The nights get cold and lonely
 When you're far away from home
 And lonely makes it easy for a good girl to go wrong
 Evil eyes search through the night for lonely girls like me
 So, mama, when you pray tonight say a special prayer for me
 I miss your tender good night kiss of love and understandin'
 These good night kisses I get now are cruel and so demandin'
 So, mama, when you pray tonight and while you're on your knees
 Mama, say a special prayer for me
