I`ve been praying all the week through
At home, at work and on the bus
I`ve been praying I can keep you
And to earn enough for us
I can take humiliation
And hurtful comments from the boss
I`m just praying by the weekend
I can earn enough for us
Found a house that won`t repair itself
With it`s windows cracking
And a roof held together with holes
Just because we`re at the bottom of the ladder
We shouldn`t be sadder
Than others like us
Who have goals for the betterment of life
Glad that you want to be my wife, but honest
I`ve been praying all the week through
At home at work and on the bus
I`ve been praying I can keep you
And to earn enough for us
So you`re saying that we`re going to be three
Now, a father`s what I`ll be
Don`t get me wrong, I`m so proud
But the belt`s already tight
I`ll get another job at night, but honest
I can take humiliation
And hurtful comments from the boss
I`m just praying by the weekend
I can earn enough for us
Just because we`re at the bottom of the ladder
We shouldn`t be sadder
Than others like us
Who have goals for the betterment of life
Glad that you want to be my wife, but honest
I can take humiliation
And hurtful comments from the Boss
I`m just praying by the weekend
I can earn enough for us
I can earn enough for us
