Sherrié Austin - Son Of A Preacher Man lyrics

Billy Ray was a preacher's son An' when his daddy'd visit, he'd come along When they gathered around and started talkin' Oh, that's when Billy'd take me walkin'; Out through the back yard, we'd go walkin' An' 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 preacherman Yes, he was, he was; oh, yes he was Ooh Oh, 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: "Everything 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 could ever teach me Was the son of a preacherman Yes, he was, oh, 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 all mine Learnin' from each other's knowin' Lookin' to see how much we've grown 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; oh, yes he was He was, he was (The only one who could ever reach me.) That sweet-talkin' son of a preacherman (The only boy who could ever teach me.) He was the son of a preacherman Oh, (The only one who could ever move me.) Yes, he was (The only boy who could ever groove me.) That sweet-talkin' son of a preacherman (The only one who could ever reach me.) Oh, yeah (The only boy who could ever teach me.) Mmm, mmm Yes, he was, he was; oh, he was The son of a preacherman
