Brandy Clark - "Pray to Jesus"

We live in trailers and apartments too
From California to Kalamazoo
Grow up, get married and when that one ends
We hate sleepin' alone, so we get married again
Don't wanna be buried in debt or sin

(Chorus)
So we pray to Jesus and we play the lotto
'cause there ain't but to ways we can change tomorrow
And it ain't no genie and it ain't no bottle
So, we pray to Jesus and we play the lotto

We love to complain about what we can't fix
Mostly mothers-in-law, traffic and politics
We tell our kinds how hard it was back when
Same way Our parents did to us back then
Thought we'd be different, but we're just like them

And we pray to Jesus and we play the lotto
'Cause there ain't but to ways we can change tomorrow
And it ain't no genie and it ain't no bottle
So, we pray to Jesus and we play the lotto

Instrumental Break

We load our kids up in our new used car
And after church we hit the mini mart
Behind the counter, up there on the wall,
It reads 200 million on the Powerball
Six little numbers that could change it all

So we pray to Jesus and we play the lotto
'cause there ain't but to ways we can change tomorrow
And it ain't no genie and it ain't no bottle
So, we pray to Jesus and we play the lotto

Like a bumper sticker -- like a poor man's motto
Times are tough and our time is borrowed
So let's pray to Jesus and play the lotto
