Lyrics

Verse 1
I’ve drank a river of whiskey smoked a mountain of pot.
Been with wives and their daughters and I’ve never been caught.
I’ve turned my back toward the preachers, I won’t kneel on my knee.
That’s why prayers ain’t made for people like me.

Verse 2
I’ve lied to myself and all that I know.
I treated the world like my own private show.
I sold my soul for some freedom still I’ve never been free.
That’s why prayers ain’t made for people like me.

Chorus
People like me who are lost for a reason,
Are best left alone cause you’ll never please ‘em.
They’ll blow through your life like a warm summer wind,
Then freeze out your heart as they move on again.
We’ll crumble your world like late autumn leaves.
That’s why prayers ain’t made for people like me.

Verse 3
I’ve cheated then I’ve pleaded for just one more chance.
Then I’ve chased every woman who would give me a glance.
If there’s a cost for your feelings then I won’t pay your fee.
That’s why prayers ain’t made for people like me.
