I've been too sick to pray, lord That's why we ain't talked in a while It's been some of them days, lord I thought i was on my last mile But i'm feelin' okay, lord And i'm glad that i called you today Never needed you more I woulda called you before But i've been to sick to pray Remember the family, lord? I know they will remember you+ And all of their prayers, lord They talk to you just like i do Well, i reckon that's all, lord That's all i can think of to say And thank you, my friend We'll be talkin' again If i'm not too sick to pray
