"Somebody Must Be Prayin' For Me" lyrics

She left Oklahoma for California
Sunglasses on the brim of her hat
Smoke was pouring from that old Cadillac
But she wasn't turning back

Just outside of Flagstaff
Motor blew on her Coupé de ville
Just in time she saw a sign
There's was a Texaco waiting at the bottom of the hill
And she said

Somebody must be praying for me
Somebody out there must be praying for me
Must be angels I can't see
Somebody must be praying for me
Yeah

A boy about 20 climbed out of a truck
All covered in grease and dirt
She said, "Hey, Charles," but he just laughed
He said, "I'm wearing my daddy's shirt."
He stood there lost in her eyes
Then she got lost in his

As the years roll by
She would sigh every time they kissed
And she'd say

Somebody must be praying for me
Somebody out there must be praying for me
Must be angels I can't see
Somebody must be praying for me

Sometimes she stares out the window
And wonders about her Hollywood dreams
But when she tucks her kids in bed
She softly whispers as they fall asleep

Somebody must be praying for me
Somebody out there must be praying for me
Ain't it funny how you find just what you need
Somebody must be praying for me

Somebody must be praying for me
Praying for me
Yeah
