Sweet sugar pumping through my veins
Every [Incomprehensible] is on a wire
Sweet sugar, you say, it's just a game
Soon to be your one desire

When the Devil holds your hand
Then you know he's in command of temptation
Like the beauty of a rose
Or a summer that will go with salvation

Say a little prayer, say a little prayer for me
Say a little prayer, say a little prayer for me

Sweet sugar, your world just tumbles down
How you hunger for illusion
Sweet sugar, will take more than you own
All you have is your confusion

You'll be standing in the rain
You'll be crying out in shame for mercy
So, you turn to every man
Say you need a helping hand, don't desert me

Say a little prayer, say a little prayer for me
Say a little prayer, say a little prayer for me
Say a little prayer, say a little prayer for me

I don't know what I've done with my life
I don't want to think of all this wasted time
I was in search of Paradise
Yet this seems a heavy price to pay

Say a little prayer, say a little prayer for me
Won't you say a prayer?
Say a little prayer, say a little prayer for me

Say a little prayer, say a little prayer for me
Say a little prayer, say a little prayer for me
Say a little prayer, say a little prayer for me
Say a little prayer, say a little prayer for me

Say a little prayer, say a little prayer for me
Say a little prayer, say a little prayer for me
