She left Oklahoma for California sunglasses on the brim of her hat
Smoke was pouring from that old cadillac but she wasnt turnin back
Just outside of Flagstaff, motor blew on her coupe deville
Just in time, she saw a sign
There was a Texaco waitin at the bottom of the hill

And she said somebody must be prayin for me
Somebody out there must be prayin for me
Must be angels, that i can't see
Somebody must be prayin for me

A boy about 20 climbed out of a truck, all covered in grease and dirt
She said, "hey charles" but he just laughed and said, "im wearin my daddy's shirt"
He stood there lost in her eyes, and she got lost in his
As the years rolled by, she would sigh, everytime they kissed

And she'd say somebody must be prayin for me
Somebody out there must be prayin for me
Must be angels, that I can't see
Somebody must be prayin for me

Sometimes she stares out the window, and wonders about her hollywood dreams
but when she tucks her kids in bed, she softly whispers as they fall asleep

Somebody must be prayin for me
Somebody out there must be prayin for me
Aint it funny how you always find just what you need
Somebody must be prayin for me

Somebody must be prayin for me
