Everybody Ought to Pray Sometime lyrics
by Blind Willie Johnson
[Verse 1]
Everybody
Everybody
Everybody oughta pray sometime
Oughta fall down on their knees
Crying, "Lord, have mercy on me"
[Verse 2]
Every liar
Every liar
Every liar oughta pray sometime
Oughta fall down on their knees
Saying, "Lord, have mercy on me"
[Verse 3]
Every gambler
Every gambler
Every gambler oughta pray sometime
Oughta fall down on their knees
Crying, "Lord, have mercy on me"
[Verse 4]
Every drunkard
Every drunkard
Every drunkard oughta pray sometime
Oughta fall down on their knees
Crying, "Lord, have mercy on me"
[Verse 5]
You backslider
You backslider
You backslider oughta pray sometime
Oughta fall down on their knees
Crying, "Lord, have mercy on me"
[Verse 1]
Everybody
Everybody
Everybody oughta pray sometime
Oughta fall down on their knees
Crying, "Lord, have mercy on"
