Still Prayin' by David Snyder

Still Prayin’
By David Snyder

Still remember when country music
She was my one and only friend
I can see it all so well
The hell we used to raise back then
Floyd Jane was still in Nashville
Writing songs about the rain
Kim Williams was still trying to get into
That Nashville Hall of Fame
Then tree wooden crosses
Popped up beside the road
Randy Travis said give me that
And that bank account she turned to gold

Pre Chorus

But storm clouds started brewing
And I knew that things were bound to change
I just had no idea that people were going to get so strange
Some evil men came along and put hip hop inside my song
I looked up at heaven and said hey God!
What the hell is going on!

Ch:

And I’m still prayin’, still prayin’
Oh Lord please make it end
Still prayin’, still prayin’
God I hope you’re still my friend
Still prayin’, still prayin’
Oh Lord please make it end
Oh Jesus I’m calling out to you
What else is a country boy to do
Oh Jesus make it end
I want my country back again

Back then when things were safe
Taylor Swift was only 12 years old
We’d never seen any platinum
All we’d ever seen was gold
Garth Brooks was on vacation
Taking care of family
I never saw that Florida Georgia Line
Unless the cops were after me
Then Garth he went back on the road
And my heart stopped being cold
I thought for just a second
I was back inside the fold

Pre Chorus

Then the Big Machine started blowing smoke
And things would never be the same
I just didn’t realize
That there would be quite that much pain
Somebody started smoking crack inside my song
I looked up at heaven and I said hey God
What the hell is going on!

Ch:

And I’m still prayin', still prayin'
Oh Lord please make it end
Still prayin’, still prayin’
God I hope you’re still my friend
Still prayin’, still prayin’
Oh Lord please make it end
Oh Jesus I’m calling out to you
What else is a country boy to do
Oh Jesus make it end
I want my country back again
