Eva Cassidy - Son Of A Preacher Man lyrics

Your rating:

Billy-Ray was a preacher's son
And when his daddy would visit he'd come along
When they gathered around and started talking
That's when Billy would take me walking
Out through the back yard we'd go walking
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
Oh, the only boy who could ever teach me
Was the son of a preacher man
Yes he was, he was, oh, you know he was

Being good isn't always easy
No matter how hard I try
When he started sweet talking to me
He'd come and tell me everythings alright
He'd kiss and tell me everything is alright
Can I get away again tonight?

The only one who could ever teach me
Was the son of a preacher man
The only boy who could ever reach me
Was the son of a preacher man
Yes, he was, he was, oh, you know he was

Oh, the only one who could ever teach me
Was the son of a preacher man
Oh, the only boy who could ever reach me
Was the son of a preacher man
Yes, he was, he was, oh, you know 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're growing

And the only one who could ever teach me was
A son of a preacher man
Oh, the only boy who could ever reach me
Was the son of a preacher man
Yes, he was, he was, oh you know he was

The only one who could ever teach me was
A son of a preacher man
Oh, the only boy who could ever reach me
Was the son of a preacher man
Yes, he was, he was, oh you know he was
