Son of a Preacher Man
Billy Ray was a preacher's son
And when his daddy would visit he'd come along
And when they started talkin'
That's when Billy would take me walkin'
Out through the backyard we'd go walkin'
Then he'd look into my eyes
Lord knows it was my surprise
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, yes, he was
Being good isn't always easy
No matter how hard I try
When he'd start sweet talkin' to me
He'd kiss and tell me everything is alright
He'd kiss and tell me everything's alright
Can I get away 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, yes he was, yes he was
Ooh, how I remember
That look in his eyes
Stealing kisses from me on the sly
Taking time to make time
Telling me he's all mine
Learning from each other's knowing
Lot at here 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
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... The only one
And when his daddy would visit he'd come along
And when they started talkin'
That's when Billy would take me walkin'
Out through the backyard we'd go walkin'
Then he'd look into my eyes
Lord knows it was my surprise
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, yes, he was
Being good isn't always easy
No matter how hard I try
When he'd start sweet talkin' to me
He'd kiss and tell me everything is alright
He'd kiss and tell me everything's alright
Can I get away 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, yes he was, yes he was
Ooh, how I remember
That look in his eyes
Stealing kisses from me on the sly
Taking time to make time
Telling me he's all mine
Learning from each other's knowing
Lot at here 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
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... The only one
