How I Learned To Pray (feat. Luke Combs)

When I was sixteen, that set of keys

Was a pair of wings, Daddy, pretty please

Can I take her out tonight?

Swear I won't get her over fifty-five

With "Back in Black" racing through my veins

Last thing I thought was if flippin' this thing

Don't get me killed

I'm pretty sure my old man will

And seein' his face when the wrecker hauled my freedom away

That's how I learned to pray

It wasn't in a church with a chapter and a verse

Some preacher made sure everybody heard

Or just some words somebody taught me to say

I was living like I wasn't long for the world

Mama always said it'd take a special girl

To get a hold of me

But I never let one get close to me

The Man upstairs must've heard her prayers

'Cause I looked up, you were standin' there

Waitin' on me

Like you were made for me

And I knew right then and there that I'd been saved

That's how I learned to pray

It wasn't in a church with a chapter and a verse

Some preacher made sure everybody heard

Or just some words somebody taught me to say

I can fold my hands and bow my head

But there's just some things that can't be said

Without a little walk on water kind of faith

And that's how I learned to pray

Have you ever looked up at the stars in the sky

Felt a tug at your heart, didn't know why

But you just knew

Someone is up there lookin' out for you?

Well, you know just what I mean when I say grace

That's how I learned to pray

Mm, that's how I learned to pray

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

I learned to pray

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

How I learned to pray

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

How I learned to pray

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
