Son Of A Preacherman Lyrics

Billy Ray was a preacher's son

And when his daddy would visit he'd come alone

When they gathered around and starting talkin'

That's when Billy would take me walkin'

Out through the back yard we'd go walkin'

Then he'd look into my eyes

Lord knows, to my surprise



The only one who could ever reach me

Was the son of a preacherman

The only boy who could ever teach me

Was the son of a preacheman

Yes he was, he was, ooh, yes he was



Bein' good isn't always easy

No matter how hard I try

When he started sweet-talkin' to me

He'd come'n tell me "Everything is all right "

He'd kiss and tell me "Everyting is all right "

Can I get away again tonight ?



The only one who could ever reach me

Was the son of a preacherman

The only boy who can ever teach me

Was the son of a preacherman

Yes he was, he was, ooh, yes he was ( yes he was )



How well I remember

The look that was in his eyes

Stealin' kisses from me on the sly

Takin' time to make time

Tellin'me that he's alle mine

Learin' from each other's knowin'

Lookin' to see how much we've grpwn and



The only one who could ever reach me

Was the son of a preacherman

The only boy who could ever teach me

Was the son of a preacherman

Yes he was, he was, ooh, yes he was



( The only one who could ever reach me )

He was the sweet-talkin' son of a preacherman

( The only boy who could ever teach me )

Was the son of a preacherman



( The only one who could ever reach me )

Was the sweet-talkin' son of a preacherman
