Prayer Of A Common Man-Phil Vassar

[00:08.38]Daddy put in his forty years, [00:10.81]got his gold watch, and then they sent him home. [00:13.93] [00:15.68]I never knew what a struggle was like [00:18.60]until I cried tears on his stone. [00:21.30] [00:23.28]He was just a kinder-will lived [00:26.41]and died on the layaway plan. [00:29.16] [00:30.02]But Lord hear the prayer of a Common Man. [00:34.70] [00:35.46]Alleluia. Is anybody out there? [00:40.69] [00:42.83]Alleluia Does anybody care? [00:47.88] [00:50.31]Life takes its toll on the heart and soul, [00:54.24]but I'm doing the best I can. [00:57.17] [00:58.10]Lord hear the prayer of a Common Man. [01:02.47] [01:10.11]A little girl needed braces [01:12.04]but it cost a couple thousand bucks. [01:15.16] [01:16.46]She has a beautiful smile [01:18.60]but it'll be awhile on my new/used pickup truck. [01:23.21] [01:23.83]This house of cards I built is mortgaged to the hills [01:28.14]and its sinking in the sand. [01:30.89] [01:31.82]Lord hear the prayer of a Common Man. [01:36.43] [01:37.25]Alleluia. Is anybody out there? [01:42.81] [01:44.74]Alleluia Does anybody care? [01:49.53] [01:52.15]Life takes its toll on the heart and soul, [01:56.21]but I'm doing the best I can. [01:59.08] [02:00.14]Lord hear the prayer of a Common Man. [02:04.94] [02:08.19]I'm not looking for charity, [02:10.62]I just need some clarity. [02:12.06] [02:12.74]I've got people counting on me. [02:15.61]And I'm tired that's all [02:17.92]I'm up against the wall. [02:20.29]Lord hear me when I call. [02:26.19]Alleluia. I know your up there. [02:31.61] [02:33.42]Alleluia. I know you care. [02:38.85] [02:40.99]Life takes its toll on the heart and soul, [02:44.87]but I'm doing the best I can. [02:47.81] [02:48.43]Lord hear the prayer of a Common Man. [02:53.62] [02:55.05]Lord hear the prayer of this Common Man.
