Son of a Preacher Man
Son of a Preacher Man - Various Artists
Billy Ray was a preacher's son
And when his daddy
Would visit he'd come along
When they gathered around
And started talking
That's when Billy
Would take me walking
Out through the back
Yard we'd go walking
Then he'd look into my eyes
Lord knows to my suprise
The only one who could ever reach me
Was the son of a preacher man
The only one who could ever teach me
Was the son of a preacher man
Yes he was he was oh yes he was
Being good isn't always easy
No matter how hard I try
When he started sweet talking to me
He'd come and tell me
Everything is alright
He'd isn't and tell me
Everything is alright
Can I get away again tonight
The only one
Who could ever reach me
Was the son of a preacher man
The only one
Who could ever teach me
Was the son of a preacher man
Yes he was he
Was oh lord knows he was
Yes he was
How well I remember
The look that was in his eyes
Stealing kisses from me on the style
Taking time to make time
Telling me that he's all mine
Learning from each other's knowing
Looking to see how much we're growing
The only one who could ever reach me
Was the son of a preacher man
The only one who could ever teach me
Was the son of a preacher man
Yes he was he was oh lord knows he was
The only one who could ever reach me
He was a sweet talking son
Of a preacher man
The only one who could ever teach me
He
Was a sweet talking son
Of a preacher man
The only one who could ever move me
Was the son of a preacher man
The only one who could ever groove me
Was the son of a preacher man
The only one who could ever reach me
Was the son of a preacher man
