We live in trailers and apartments too
From California to Kalamazoo
Grow up get married and when that one ends
We hate sleeping alone so we get married again
Don't wanna be buried in debt or sin
So we pray to Jesus and we play the lotto
Cause there ain't but two ways we can change tomorrow
And there ain't no genie and there ain't no bottle
So we pray to Jesus and we play the lotto
Love to complain about what we can't fix
Mostly mothers in law, traffic, and politics
We tell our kids how hard it was back when
Same way our parents did with us back then
Thought we'd be different but we're just like them
Yea, we pray to Jesus and we play the lotto
Cause there ain't but two ways we can change tomorrow
And there ain't no genie and there ain't no bottle
So we pray to Jesus and we play the lotto
We load our kids up in our new used car
And after church we hit the mini mart
Behind the counter up there on the wall
It reads $200 million on the power ball
Six little numbers that can change it all
So we pray to Jesus and we play the lotto
Cause there ain't but two ways we can change tomorrow
And there ain't no genie and there ain't no bottle
So we pray to Jesus and we play the lotto
Like a bumper sticker
Like a poor man's money
Times are tough and our time is borrowed
So it's pray to Jesus and it's play the lotto
