Time to Pray

Just got to Austin when I got the news
So hungry and tired don't know which to choose
Wha cha think sister gimme some advice
took off her shades so I could see her eyes

Everybody
acting like this is something new
The tide is going to push you down
Until you find some solid ground

Kneeling kneeling kneeling All I can say
you think it's time to win
but I think it's time to pray
Kneeling kneeling kneeling
ain't no other way
you think it's time to win I think it's time to pray

Wandered a bit My bags weigh me down
Ran into Shira I was in her town
Wine and conversation catching up
Like communion from a paper cup

Everybody
There's always a another point of view
The tide is rising all around
We better find some solid ground

Kneeling kneeling kneeling all I can say
you think it's time to win
but I think it's time to pray
Kneeling kneeling kneeling
ain't no other way
you think it's time to win I think it's time to pray

I'm going to heaven now don't be mad
Cause most folk think it's just a fad
Took most of my cues from old Mink in jail
Just shy of the mark
But he blazed a trail

Everybody
Acting like this is something new
The tide is going to push you down
Until you find some solid ground

Kneeling kneeling kneeling
is all I can say
you think it's time to win
but I think it's time to pray
Kneeling kneeling kneeling
ain't no other way
you think it's time to win I think it's time to pray
