Son Of A Preacherman

Billy-Ray was a preacher's son
 And when his daddy would visit he'd come along
 When they gathered round and started talkin'
 That's when Billy would take me walkin'
 A-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 preacher man
 The only boy who could ever teach me
 Was the son of a preacher man
 Yes he was, he was, mmm, yes he was
 Being good isn't always easy
 No matter how hard I try
 When he started sweet-talkin' to me
 He'd come and tell me everything is all right
 He'd kiss and tell me everything is all right
 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 knows 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 all mine
 Learnin' from each other's knowing
 Lookin' to see how much we've 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
 The only boy who could ever teach me
 Sweet-lovin' son of a preacher man
 The only boy who could ever teach me
 He was the sweet-talking son of a preacher man
 The only boy who could ever teach me
 Sweet-lovin' son of a preacher man
 The only boy who could ever teach me
 Sweet son of a preacher man
 Oh, yes he was
 Was the son of a preacher man
 Alright, oh yes
 Oh sweet son of a preacher man
 Oh, oh yes
 Sweet son of a preacher man
 Oh yes, sweet son of a preacher man
