Hanne Boel - Son Of A Preacherman lyrics

Son Of a Preacher Man Billy ray was a preacher's son And when his daddy would visit he'd come along When they gathered round and started talking That's when billy would take me walking A-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 The only boy who could ever teach me Was the son of a preacher man Yes he was, he was, mm, yes he was Beeing good isn't always easy No matter how hard I try When he started sweet-talking 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 Stealing kisses from me on the sly Taking time to make time Telling me that hes all mine Learning from each others' knowing Looking 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 one who could ever reach me He was the sweet-talking son of a preacher man The only one who could ever teach me I guessed he was the son of a preacher man The only one who could ever move me Sweet-lovin son of a preacher man The only one who could ever move me Was the son of a preacher man The only one who could ever reach me Was the son of a preacher man
