Prayer For The Road Songtext
von Eli Young Band

Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh

I found it outside of Birmingham headed to another place
Took me five hundred miles to get to the bottom of my suitcase
Was in between a pair of jeans and my old black winter coat
It took my breath away when I read what she wrote

May the wheels keep turning, get you where you need to go
I′ll keep the porch light burning 'til you get back home
May the angels fly beside you, down every mile you roll
May Heaven hear this prayer
Prayer for the road

Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh

As much as she misses me, she found the words to write
Enough to keep me warm on a cold December night
And when I′m running on empty, and I'm feeling lost
I can hear her voice, whispering to God


May the wheels keep turning, get you where you need to go
I'll keep the porch light burning ′til you get back home
May the angels fly beside you, down every mile you roll
May Heaven hear this prayer
Prayer for the road

Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh

Must have read that note at least a thousand times
It always takes me where the highway, it meets the sky

May the wheels keep turning, get you where you need to go
I′ll keep the porch light burning 'til you get back home
May the angels fly beside you, down every mile you roll
May Heaven hear this prayer
Prayer for the road, yeah

Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh


Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
