Still Got A Prayer Lyrics - Singles - Falcon Billy

As my daddy lay there on Omaha Beach 

It didn't look good 

For my brothers and me 

There were 24 hours on that longest day 

now ten thousand crosses 

Scar the beach where they lay 

Under machine gun fire 

On that blood day called D 

Back home a young girl was praying 

God bring him home for me 

CHORUS 

When you reach out 

And nobody's there 

Scream and shout 

No one seems to care 

When you think you've got nothing left to hold on to 

When you cry out 

And nobody hears 

Just fear and doubt 

All you've left is tears 

When you think 

You've got nothing left to hold on to 

You've still got a prayer 

When my mother was born 

On that South Brooklyn street 

It didn't look good 

For my brothers and me 

Born in the back of a store 

That sold cigars and candy 

Cold she lay crying 

And that's the way it would be 

CHORUS 

She took her last breath 

And I kissed her goodbye 

Walked down that hospital hall 

Trying so hard not to cry 

As he took his last breath 

On calvary's tree 

It didn't look good 

No there wasn't much hope 

For my brothers and me 

CHORUS
