Mama’s Prayer
Written and recorded by Merle Haggard

C F C
Back when I was doing time there’s a night I can’t forget
G7
A mad man with knife in hand tried to kill me while I slept
C F C
But somehow the knife missed its mark and I pinned the raging man
G7 C
Somehow my mama’s prayers it worked again

F C
One night while we were driving across the mighty Texas plains
G7
A car pulled out with its headlights out head on into our lane
C F C
As Deanrow swerved and missed the car I felt a mighty hand
G7 C
Somehow my mama’s prayers it worked again

F
Mama’s prayers were always with me in the battlefields of life
C G7
She prayed for me and said amen in the name of Jesus Christ
C F C
From the death house in San Quentin I walked away a better man
G7 C
Somehow my mama’s prayers it worked again

F
Mama’s prayers were always with me in the battlefields of life
C G7
She prayed for me and said amen in the name of Jesus Christ
C F C
From the death house in San Quentin I walked away a better man
G7 C
Somehow my mama’s prayers had worked again

Repeat #3
