I'll Pray For You

Have you ever heard the song “I’ll Pray for You” by Jaron & The Long Road to Love?  You start listening and you think it’s another religious related country song.  You keep listening thinking it’s going to be something deep and meaningful…

“I haven’t been to church since I don’t remember when.  Things were going great until they fell apart again, so I listen to the preacher as he told me what to do.  He said you can’t go hating others who have done wrong to you.  Sometimes we get angry but we must not condemn.  Let the good Lord do his job and you just pray for them.”

THEN… the chorus…

“I pray your brakes go out running down a hill.  I pray a flower pot falls from a window sill and knocks you in the head like I’d like to.  I pray your birthday comes and nobody calls.  I pray your flying high when your engine stalls.  I pray all your dreams never come true.  Just know wherever you are, honey, I pray for you!”

At this point you’re like OMG and are a little stunned.  It continues back to a normal song…

 “I’m really glad I found my way to church.  Cause I’m already feeling better and I thank God for the worst.  Yeah, I’m gonna take the high road and do what the preacher told me to do.  You keep messing up and I’ll keep praying for you.”

“I pray a tire blows out at 110.  I pray you pass out drunk with your best friend and wake up with his and her tattoos.”

The music starts building up and up to the chorus yet again…

“I pray your brakes go out running down a hill.  I pray a flower pot falls from a window sill and knocks you in the head like I’d like to.  I pray your birthday comes and nobody calls.  I pray your flying high when your engine stalls.  I pray all your dreams never come true.  Just know wherever you are, near or far, in your house or in your car.  Wherever you are, honey, I pray for you!”

At this point I’m laughing uncontrollably and wishing for some Poise pads because there is a great threat that I may pee on myself I’m laughing so hard.

Then, at the end of the song you catch your breath and you think, “Yep, I know someone this song relates to!” 

Then, you feel guilty!
