Prayin’ for a Party

[Verse 1]
Saturday night and time that I go to bed
Daddy goodnight and Momma goodnight, it's ten
Don't forget, son, to pray
Anything, Dad, you say
I'm gonna pray 'til both my knees are red

[Refrain]
Prayin' for a party, c'mon Lord, c'mon Lord
Prayin' for a party

[Verse 2]
All of my friends are prayin' like prayin' fools
Send us a little jive and we'll be all right
What do we have to do? What do we have to do?
What do we have to do, Lord, to get on through?

[Refrain]
Prayin' for a party, c'mon Lord, c'mon Lord
Prayin' for a party

[Interlude]
C'mon Lord
C'mon Lord
C'mon Lord

[Bridge]
I just can't wait no more
I'm runnin' out that door
God helps those who help themselves to a real good time

[Refrain]
Prayin' for a party, c'mon Lord, c'mon Lord
Prayin' for a party
Prayin' for a party, c'mon Lord, c'mon Lord
Prayin' for a party
Prayin' for a party, c'mon Lord, c'mon Lord
Prayin' for a party
Prayin' for a party, c'mon Lord, c'mon Lord
Prayin' for a party
Prayin' for a party, c'mon Lord, c'mon Lord
Prayin' for a party
Prayin' for a party, c'mon Lord, c'mon Lord
