Aaron Watson - The Prayer Lyrics






My mountain is a mole hill, my throne's a busted chair
This crown has turned to rust and it's all tangled in my hair
This high horse that I ride on is gonna buckle at the knee
Upon my castle made of sand I cannot be the king of me

There's the man in white, his words are painted red
There's power in his blood and only truth in what is said
There's the man in black with a needle in his vein
Lying flat upon his back this is the prayer that he once prayed

He said, my mountain is a mole hill, my throne's a busted chair
This crown has turned to rust and it's all tangled in my hair
This high horse that I ride on is gonna buckle at the knee
Upon my castle made of sand I cannot be the king of me

And this harem in my heart is filled with pot metal and fools gold
Once your statue turns to dirt all that's left in the end is your soul
God save your soul

So he said shout out of control with all your heart and soul
Though this cold world may tear you apart
Let the whole world know

My mountain is a mole hill, my throne's a busted chair
This crown has turned to rust and it's all tangled in my hair
This high horse that I ride on is gonna buckle at the knee
Upon my castle made of sand I cannot be the king of me

My mountain is a mole hill, my throne's a busted chair
This crown has turned to rust and it's all tangled in my hair
This high horse that I ride on is gonna buckle at the knee
Upon my castle made of sand I cannot be the king of me

Lord, I am just a man
I cannot be the king of me

    My mountain is a mole hill, my throne's a busted chair
    This crown has turned to rust and it's all tangled in my hair
    This high horse that I ride on is gonna buckle at the knee

    There's the man in white, his words are painted red
    There's power in his blood and only truth in what is said
    There's the man in black with a needle in his vein
    Lying flat upon his back this is the prayer that he once prayed

    He said, my mountain is a mole hill, my throne's a busted chair

    I listen to this song every morning as I drive to work.

  37. C.... B....

    Love the song, beginning kind of reminds me of "Turn The Page" for some reason.

    C.... B....

    OMG I never thought of that but it so does remind me of that

  38. M.... O....

    This reminds me of Johnny Cash's version of "Hurt"! I love it!

  39. c.... ....

    The other day when I wrote my comment, I told my wife that it reminded me of a Johnny Cash song.  I just read where this song written by Aaron was inspired by a book he read on Johnny Cash, and how Johnny's  faith saved his life from all his addictions. 

    Amazing.

  40. c.... ....

    Very powerful song!

  41. J.... C....

    Awesome  Cowboy Music!

    Take that Nashville and the crap music coming out if it. This is country.

    Amen brother

  43. J.... R....

    Can't stop listening. Love it.

  44. E.... G....

    Awesome song, lyrics are so true in many ways. Keep on doing great things Sir!

  45. T.... W....

    Awesome !!!!!

  46. D.... M....

    Why is this not as popular or well known as it should be?

    D.... M....

    He's popular and has songs on the radio

    D.... M....

    @Derek Mager They don't want songs like this.. they want ones like "Girl Crush" so they can fit in with main stream Pop music.

    D.... M....

    @jsrrrmg seriously how tf is girl crush up there? Its so pitiful....

    D.... M....

    LOL.. That is the same reaction I have to today's music. One of the great things about living in the information age, is that we are not stuck with what the Main Stream companies want to force on us.

    D.... M....

    the word's not out. i listen to country and just found this guy

  47. A.... V....

    Good song

  48. B.... W....

    Great song... just as good as George Strait
