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
