Couldn't Hear Nobody Pray
[Intro]
I couldn't hear nobody pray, Lord
I couldn't hear nobody pray.
See when I was way down yonder,
By myself.
And I couldn't hear nobody pray.
See, oh Lord....

[Chorus]
I couldn't hear nobody pray, Lord.
I couldn't hear nobody pray.
See when I was way down yonder,
By myself
And I couldn't hear nobody pray.

[Verse 1]
Dark was the night and cold the ground,
On which my Lord was laid.
And great drops of blood like sweat roll down,
In agony he prayed.
See, oh Lord....

[Chorus]
I couldn't hear nobody pray, Lord.
I couldn't hear nobody pray.
See when I was way down yonder,
By myself
And I couldn't hear nobody pray.

[Verse 2]
Father remove this bitter cup
If such thy sacred will.
But if not content to drink it up,
Thy pleasure I'll fulfill.
See,oh Lord ohh

[Chorus]
I couldn't hear nobody pray, Lord.
I couldn't hear nobody pray.
See when I was way down yonder,
By myself
And I couldn't hear nobody pray.

[Bridge]
Couldn't hear nobody pray, Lord.
Couldn't hear nobody pray,
Way down yonder by myself.
Couldn't hear nobody pray.

[Interlude]
Uhm-uhm-uhm-uhm
Uhm-uhm-uhm-uhm
Uhm-uhm-uhm-uhm
Uhm-uhm-uhm-uhm
See, oh Lord...

[Chorus]
I couldn't hear nobody pray, Lord.
I couldn't hear nobody pray.
See when I was way down yonder,
By myself
And I couldn't hear nobody pray.
