That old bar stool became my alter
Whiskey was my Holy Water
I was baptized at night under neon lights in cigarette smoke
That open sign became my Bible
The cover band was my revival
My Sunday mornings were spent hungover
Goin' against myself and what I felt in my heart
Every night when I'm Prayin' in a Bar
And maybe it's messed up
That this is where I come to kill some stress
I was thinkin' that maybe while I was here I'd confess
Hey bartender, I'm just talkin' to God out loud
I'll pour my whole heart out while you pour me another round
Cause that old bar stool became my alter
Whiskey was my Holy Water
I was baptized at night under neon lights in cigarette smoke
That open sign became my Bible
The cover band was my revival
My Sunday mornings were spent hungover
Goin' against myself and what I felt in my heart
Every night when I'm Prayin' in a Bar
And I stay every night until closing time
When they shut down all the lights
And I pray and I drink, all alone I'll wait
All the way til' the morning light
Cause that old bar stool became my alter
Whiskey was my Holy Water
I was baptized at night under neon lights in cigarette smoke
That open sign became my Bible
The cover band was my revival
My Sunday mornings were spent hungover
Goin' against myself and what I felt in my heart
Goin' against myself and what I felt in my heart
Every night when I'm Prayin' in a Bar
Yeah, when I'm Prayin' in a Bar
