Billy Ray was a preacher's son |
|
And when his daddy would visit he'd come along |
|
When they gathered around and starting talkin' |
|
That's when Billy would take me walkin' |
|
Out through the back yard we'd go walkin' |
|
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, ooh, yes he was |
|
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 can ever teach me |
|
Was the son of a preacherman |
|
Yes he was, he was, ooh, yes he was (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, ooh, yes he was |
|
(The only one who could ever reach me) |
|
He was the sweet-talkin' son of a preacherman |
|
(The only boy who could ever teach me) |
|
Was the son of a preacherman |
|
(The only one who could ever reach me) |
|
Was the sweet-talkin' son of a preacherman |
