Son Of A Preacher Man lyrics

Billy-Ray was a
Preacher's son and
when his daddy
would visit he'd
come along

When they gathered
round and
started talking

Cousin Billy would
take me walking

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 boy 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 tried

When he started
sweet talking to me

He'd come tell me
everything is alright

He'd kiss 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 boy who
could ever teach me

Was the son of
a preacher man

Yes he was,
he was,
oh yes he was

How well
I remember

The look that
was in his eyes

Stealing kisses from
me on the sly

Taking time
to make time

Telling me that
he's all mine

Learning from each
other's knowing

Looking to see how
much we'd grown
And the only one who
could ever reach me

Was the son of
a preacher man

The only boy who
could ever teach me

Was the son of
a preacher man

Yes he was,
he was,
oh yes he was

He was the sweet
talking son of
a preacher man

Ah yes he was
the son of
a preacher man

Sweet son of
a preacher man
