I've been praying all the weeks through
At home, at work and on the bus
I've been praying, I can keep you
And to earn enough for usI can take humiliation
And hurtful comments from the boss
I'm just praying by the weekend
I can earn enough for usFound a house that won't repair itself
With its windows cracking
And a roof held together with holesJust because we're on the bottom of the ladder
We shouldn't be sadder than others like us
Who have goals for the betterment of life
Glad that you want to be my wife but honestI've been praying all the weeks through
At home at work and on the bus
I've been praying I can keep you
And to earn enough for usSo you're saying that we're going to be three
Now, a father's what I'll be, don't get me wrong
I'm so proud but the belt's already tight
I'll get another job at night but honestI can take humiliation
And hurtful comments from the boss
I'm just praying by the weekend
I can earn enough for usJust because we're on the bottom of the ladder
We shouldn't be sadder than others like us
Who have goals for the betterment of life
Glad that you want to be my wife but honestI can take humiliation
And hurtful comments from the boss
I'm just praying by the weekend
I can earn enough for us, I can earn enough for us
