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,ah, 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,'s he was, he was, mmh,
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 and 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, Lord,
oh 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 others 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.
