Pray Them Bars Away - Alternate Version

Lyrics

Four years down and twenty one to blow
 Ten thousand more breakfasts to go
 Fourteen million seconds of living this way
 And I guess it's time I started to pray them bars away
 I wonder what you're doing since I don't see you none
 Are you still a doin' all them rotten things we done
 If you've got some spare time why don't you learn to pray
 Maybe you can help me to pray them bars away
 Remember old Red Barber he checked out last night
 He still hold them eighteen years it serves the devil's right
 He checked out in a casket he've been sixty two today
 I heard that he went crazy tryin' to pray them bars away
 Sometimes I miss the women and miss them all I do
 Sometimes I miss the whiskey and I miss the good times too
 Sometimes I miss my mama I saw her Christmas Day
 But I never miss a time to pray them bars away
 I'm told I should be thankful for everything I've got
 So thank you for the rock walls and the brave bulls thanks a lot
 And thank you for the good job and twenty cents a day
 Thank you for the break time to pray them bars away
