Prayer - Charles Lloyd

Prayer Lyrics

Oh oh
Oh ohhh
Oh
Yea
[Verse 1:]
Thou shall not run these streets
Thou shall not hit these clubs
Every night of the week lookin for some groupie love
Thou shall respect your heart
Thou shall not play you hard
But I did
I was wrong and I'm hatin it
[Hook:]
Cuz now I'm callin ya cell phone
Over and over
My high is gone
But I don't wanna be sober
I'm feelin sick and I ain't got the flu

Girl I'm missing you
[Chorus:]
Girl I'm on my knees (knees)
I promise I'll be good
And I will never do it again (again)
On my knees (knees)
I can't get over you (you)
All I need is one more chance (one more chance)
I was just playin wit them girls
I was gonna get right back (get right back)
I was trippin yo love is where it's at
I'm on my knees
Lord please show me some love
And answer this player's prayer
[Verse 2:]
Thou shall not stand you up (up)
Thou shall not put his friends (friends)
Before you and leave you lonely every weekend
Thou shall not waste your time
Thou shall not make you cry
But I did
I was wrong and I'm hatin it
[Hook:]
Cuz now I'm callin ya cell phone
Over and over
My high is gone
But I don't wanna be sober
I'm feelin sick and I ain't got the flu
Girl I'm missing you
[Chorus:]
Girl I'm on my knees (knees)
I promise I'll be good
And I will never do it again (again)
On my knees (knees)
I can't get over you (you)
All I need is one more chance (one more chance)
I was just playin wit them girls
I was gonna get right back (get right back)
I was trippin yo love is where it's at
I'm on my knees
Lord please show me some love
And answer this player's prayer
[Breakdown:]
