Who did you say it was, brother?
Who was it fell by the way?
When whiskey and blood run together,
did you hear anyone pray?
I didn't hear nobody pray,
dear brother,
I didn't hear nobody pray
I heard the crash on the highway,
but I didn't hear nobody pray
When I heard the crash on the highway,
I knew what it was from the start.
I went to the scene of destruction,
a picture was stamped on my heart.
There was whiskey and blood all together
Was mixed with glass where they lay
Death laid her hand in destruction
But I didn't hear nobody pray
I didn't hear nobody pray, dear brother
I didn't hear nobody pray
I heard the crash on the highway
But I didn't hear nobody pray
I wish I could change this sad story
That I am now telling you
But there's no way I can change it
For somebody's life is now through
Their souls have been
called by the master
They died in a crash on the way
And I heard the groans of the dying
But I didn't hear nobody pray
I didn't hear nobody pray, dear brother
I didn't hear nobody pray
I heard the crash on the highway,
but I didn't hear nobody pray.
