TILL THEY ALL GET HOME
(SAY A LITTLE PRAYER)
Writer: Melanie Safka

Everybody is heading homeward
Leaving for distance and places unknown
They're tying up their laces
And fluffing up their pillows
And say a prayer 'til they all get home

Make a commotion, make a little difference
Shake up the rafters and rock the boat
We're all in this together, never forget it
And say a little prayer 'til they all get home
Say a prayer 'til they all get home

Home is where the heart is, home is a castle
There's reasons for leaving and reasons take time
But we're in this together, never forget it
And say a prayer 'til kingdom come
Say a prayer 'til they all get home
Say a prayer 'til they all get home

Everybody is heading homeward
Leaving for distance and places unknown
Tying up their laces
Or fluffing up their pillows
But say a prayer 'til they all get home
Say a prayer 'til they all get home
Say a prayer 'til they all get home

Say a little prayer
Say a little prayer
Say a little prayer
Say a little prayer
Say a little prayer 'til they all get home
Say a little prayer
Say a little prayer 'til they all get home
'Til they all get home
'Til they all get home

about

Melanie Nashville, Tennessee

Pieces of a career, scattered by the winds of experience and assembled again by the force of love into the most personal and brilliant moments of her musical journey. Melanie is poised to enlighten new generations about what it means to sing with both passion and eloquence, to write at once with intelligence and emotion, and to inspire through song. Nobody does this better.
