Jack Howard - Dial-A-Prayer lyrics

He still dreams of mayhem After all these years Thought he's no longer called upon To clear a path or bend an arm He walks tall before his friends He used to ride the streets Like a silent prince Trigger fingers and trigger head He was a man of steel He had the whole world In his hands Now it's dial a prayer Dial a life Dial a whiskey Dial a wife You'll see him around And you'll see him down This dead end bar In this dead end town Self love still saves him In the mirror His sags don't seem so bad When lit by lamp His smile is quite debonair For one so lost Now he haunts the streets In the dead of night The pain somewhere down deep inside He can't be reached It can never Be relieved Now it's dial a prayer Dial a life Dial a whiskey Dial a wife You'll see him around And you'll see him down This dead end bar In this dead end town And then the dawn arises And he turns to dust And his flower fades With the rising sun He's just one Of many His grace Has been run Now it's dial a prayer Dial a life Dial a whiskey Dial a wife You'll see him around And you'll see him down This dead end bar In this dead end town Dial a prayer Dial a life Dial a whiskey Dial a wife You'll see him around And you'll see him down This dead end bar In this dead end town
