Lyrics

[00:12.11] Billy-Ray was a preacher's son
[00:13.99] And when his daddy would visit he'd come along
[00:17.25] When they gathered around and started talkin'
[00:19.66] That's when Billy would take me walkin'
[00:22.38] Out through the back yard we'd go walkin'
[00:25.02] Then he'd look into my eyes
[00:27.70] Lord knows to my suprise
[00:30.06] The only one who could ever reach me
[00:33.10] Was the son of a preacher man
[00:35.35] The only boy who could ever teach me
[00:38.25] Was the son of a preacher man
[00:40.26] Yes he was, he was, oh yes he was
[00:51.65] Bein' good isn't always easy
[00:54.19] No matter how hard I try
[00:56.92] When he started sweet-talkin' to me
[00:59.42] He'd come and tell me everything is alright
[01:02.02] He'd kiss and tell me everything is alright
[01:04.69] Can I get away again tonight
[01:07.32] The only one who could ever reach me
[01:09.85] Was the son of a preacher man
[01:12.24] The only boy who could ever teach me
[01:15.13] Was the son of a preacher man
[01:17.37] Yes he was, he was, oh lord knows he was
[01:25.91] How well I remember
[01:28.71] The look that was in his eyes
[01:31.07] Stealin' kisses from me on the sly
[01:33.69] Takin' time to make time
[01:36.36] Tellin' me that he's all mine
[01:38.95] Learnin' from each other's knowin'
[01:41.42] Lookin' to see how much we're growin'
[01:44.07] The only one who could ever reach me
[01:46.71] Was the son of a preacher man
[01:48.96] The only boy who could ever teach me
[01:52.22] Was the son of a preacher man
[01:54.19] Yes he was, he was, oh lord knows he was
[01:59.67] The only boy who could ever reach me
[02:02.45] He was a sweet talkin' son of a preacher man
[02:04.92] The only boy who could ever teach me
[02:07.61] Was the son of a preacher man
[02:09.78] The only one who could ever move me
[02:12.83] Was the son of a preacher man
[02:15.10] The only boy who could ever groove me
[02:18.11] Was the son of a preacher man
[02:20.39] Yes he was, he was, oh yeah yeah yes he was
