[00:11.46] Billy Ray was a preacher's son
[00:13.47] And when his daddy would visit he'd come along
[00:16.66] When they gathered around and started talking
[00:19.20] That's when Billy would take me walking
[00:21.97] Out through the backyard we'd go walking
[00:24.70] Then he'd look into my eyes
[00:27.38] Lord knows to my surprise
[00:29.25]
[00:29.63] The only one who could ever reach me
[00:32.47] Was the son of a preacher man
[00:34.74] The only boy who could ever teach me
[00:37.51] Was the son of a preacher man
[00:39.86] Yes he was, he was, oh yes he was
[00:45.21]
[00:51.24] Being good isn't always easy
[00:53.79] No matter how hard I try
[00:56.46] When he started sweet-talking to me
[00:59.06] He'd come and tell me everything is alright
[01:01.55] He'd kiss and tell me everything is alright
[01:04.48] Can I get away again tonight
[01:06.43]
[01:06.68] The only one who could ever reach me
[01:09.53] Was the son of a preacher man
[01:11.89] The only boy who could ever teach me
[01:14.98] Was the son of a preacher man
[01:17.10] Yes he was, he was, oh lord knows he was
[01:22.08]
[01:25.98] How well I remember
[01:28.55] The look that was in his eyes
[01:31.01] Stealing kisses from me on the sly
[01:33.63] Taking time to make time
[01:36.08] Telling me that he's all mine
[01:38.86] Learning from each other's knowing
[01:41.20] Looking to see how much we're growing
[01:43.48]
[01:43.72] The only one who could ever reach me
[01:46.73] Was the son of a preacher man
[01:49.01] The only boy who could ever teach me
[01:51.89] Was the son of a preacher man
[01:53.85] Yes he was, he was, oh yes he was
[01:59.05]
[01:59.76] The only boy who could ever reach me
[02:01.96] He was a sweet-talking son of a preacher man
[02:04.73] The only boy who could ever teach me
[02:07.55] Was the son of a preacher man
[02:09.98] The only one who could ever move me
[02:12.98] Was the son of a preacher man
[02:15.28] The only one who could ever groove me
[02:18.06] Was the son of a preacher man
[02:20.35] The only one who could ever reach me
[02:23.15] Was the son of a preacher man
