Lyrics Need a Favor – Jelly Roll

I only talk to God when I need a favor
And I only pray when I ain’t got a prayer
So who the hell am I
Who the hell am I to expect a savior, oh oh
If I only talk to God when I need a favor
God I need a favor

I know amazing grace
But I ain’t been livin them words
Swear I spend most Sundays
Drunk off my a*s than I have at church
Hard cover King James
Been only saving dust on the nightstand
And I don’t know what to say
By the time I fold my hands

I only talk to God when I need a favor
And I only pray when I ain’t got a prayer
So who the hell am I
Who the hell am I to expect a savior, oh oh
If I only talk to God when I need a favor
God I need a favor

Amen
Amen

I owe you more than one
And beggars can’t be choosers
But I’ll pay for all I’ve done
Just please don’t let me lose her

I only talk to God when I need a favor
And I only pray when I ain’t got a prayer
So who the hell am I
Who the hell am I to expect a savior
If I only talk to God when I need a favor
God I need a favor

Amen
Amen
Amen
Amen

Hanging in there, just barely
Throwin’ up prayers, like Hail Mary’s
If he’s still there, Lord spare me
Oh my God, oh my God, Hail Mary

Hanging in there, just barely
Throwin’ up prayers, like hail mary’s
If he’s still there, Lord spare me
Oh my God, oh my God, Hail Mary

I only talk to God when I need a favor
And I only pray when I ain’t got a prayer
So tell me who the hell am I, to expect a savior
When I only talk to God when I need a favor
God I need a favor

Amen
God I need a favor
Whoa oh
Amen…
