A man with no god started to pray
For a chance and a shot to win back his name
He used to have a whole lot but he threw it away
And all that he loved was washed down the drain

Oh man oh no he got no place else to go
Oh man oh lord only the lord could save his soul

He was the one it wouldn't happen to
He reminded me of me and you
He had it all but what is it all?
I guess you only know when it's finally gone

Oh man oh no he got no place else to go
Oh man oh lord only the lord could save his soul

Down to his knees and willing to give faith a try
Willing to plead to the man who gave and spared his life
A man with no god stated to pray
For a chance and a shot to win back his name
When he had nothing he stated to see
The thing he missed most was his dignity

Oh man oh no he got no place else to go
Oh man oh lord only the lord could save his soul
Down to his knees and willing to give faith a try
Willing to plead to the man who gave and spared his life
