Wore fan-cy clothes, drove big cars.
Flashed lots of mon-ey, and smoked big ci-gars.
Broke hearts with my rov-ing eye.
Then one day I asked my-self "Why?"
 
Quit lik-ing those things I did.
Stu-pid-ly act-ing like I was a kid.
I'd dug my-self in a hole.
Knew the dev-il would own my soul.
 
And that's when I said my prayer,
My lies and sins lay bare.
I prayed for help to guide my ways,
To a bet-ter life with brigh-ter days.
 
Now I thank God ev-ery day.
Don't have to wor-ry the Dev-il to pay.
A-shamed of what I had been.
Wish I could be free of all sin.
 
And now when I say my prayer,
My lies and sins lay bare.
I pray for help to guide my ways,
To a bet-ter life with brigh-ter days
