Now I Smoke, Like I Used to Pray Songtext
Five years working on the railway
Five years digging up the roads
Two years trying to keep my own job
One year picking up the dole
Yes it′s hard
Oh it's hard
It′s hard
I know it's hard
Now I smoke like I used pray
And I hope this all blows away
I can go but I have things to do
They'll be up in an hour as dawn
Starts bursting through
Ones got her birthday in December
Ones going to school next year
There′s another one due September
There′s just no work for me here
Oh it's hard
Yes it′s hard
It's hard
I know it′s hard
Now I smoke like I used to pray
And I used to pray all times of day
I can go but I have things to do
They'll be up in an hour as the dawn
Starts bursting through
If I got some time
I head over to the church
Cause unless that candle′s burning
I only fear the worst
And I would talk if I could
Only worry God about it all
Or if I understood
What I'm going through
Now I smoke like I used to pray
I used to pray all times of day
I could go But I have things to do
They'll be up in an hour as dawn
Starts bursting through
Coming downstairs as the dawn
Starts bursting through
Five years digging up the roads
Two years trying to keep my own job
One year picking up the dole
Yes it′s hard
Oh it's hard
It′s hard
I know it's hard
Now I smoke like I used pray
And I hope this all blows away
I can go but I have things to do
They'll be up in an hour as dawn
Starts bursting through
Ones got her birthday in December
Ones going to school next year
There′s another one due September
There′s just no work for me here
Oh it's hard
Yes it′s hard
It's hard
I know it′s hard
Now I smoke like I used to pray
And I used to pray all times of day
I can go but I have things to do
They'll be up in an hour as the dawn
Starts bursting through
If I got some time
I head over to the church
Cause unless that candle′s burning
I only fear the worst
And I would talk if I could
Only worry God about it all
Or if I understood
What I'm going through
Now I smoke like I used to pray
I used to pray all times of day
I could go But I have things to do
They'll be up in an hour as dawn
Starts bursting through
Coming downstairs as the dawn
Starts bursting through
