[Verse 1]
EmLast I saw mother she Grose from a chair
When they Amcaught me I'd just finished Ccombing my hair
'Cause a Emrabbit will run, as a Gcolt does along with the Ammare C
We've Emall learned the earth while we Gcarried the throne
We dove Amunder the rivers and Cunder our clothes
And I Emstill have a prayer, as Gsure as my settling Ambones C
[Verse 2]
LaEmst I saw mother, she cGovered my ears
When they Amcaught me I offered the Ccaptain a beer
BecausEme the rabbit will run anGd the lion has nothiAmng to fearC
We bricEmked up the garden and know whatG it means
And we'vAme all kissed a virginC as if she were clean
And I Emstill have a prayer despGite all the colors IAm've seen C
[Verse 3]
EmAnd judgment is just lGike a cup that we share
I'll jump Amover the wall and I'll wait Cfor you there
Well pastEm the weeds in our visiGon of things to Amcome C
We've Emall heard the rooster and all bGeen denied
And we'vAme seen through the haCze and the spit in our eyes
And I Emstill have a prayer, a wGell-weathered word tAmo the wiseC
[Verse 4]
EmLast I saw mother, sheG smelled like a rose
When they Amcaught me, the captain, he oCpened my nose
Because tEmhe rabbit will run andG the wind takes a bird where itAm blows C
We've Emall traded lovers and woke up aGlone
And we cAmlapped for the king tChough our fingers were cold
I stilEml have a prayer cause I Glove what I cannot cAmontrol C
[Verse 5]
EmLast I saw mother, sheG acted surprised
When they Amcaught me, the captain, he cCried like a child
Because tEmhe rabbit will run, anGd good dogs together go wAmild C
We've Emall lived in grace at the end oGf the day
And we aAmrmed all the childrenC we thought we betrayed
I stilEml have a prayer but too Gfew occasions to praAmy C
[Verse 6]
EmJudgment is just like Ga cup that we share
I'll jump Amover the wall and I'll wait Cfor you there
Well pastEm the weeds in our visiGon of things to come Am C
And weEm've all found a reason for hidiGng a gun
We've heAmlped out a few if we'Cve hurt anyone
I stilEml have a prayer and so bGe it, I've done whatAm I've doneC
[Verse 7]
LEmast I saw mother, she Gblew me a kiss
When they Amcaught me, the cuffs cut theC blood from my wrist
'Cause thEme rabbit will run and Gthe pig has to lay in itsAm piss C
We've Emall given half to the hand in oGur face
We've alAml taken a stone from Cthe holiest place
And I Emstill have a prayer and GI've furthered the wAmorld in myC wake
