Momma, I’ve got something to ask you, have things been alright? | |
Dad’s been gone for a while, and the doors been locked up tight. | |
Shouldn’t he be home any minute? Wish I knew what was going on. | |
I was such a young boy then, still I knew, something was wrong. | |
Who is this preacher man, and why ain’t he preaching no more? | |
Why’s he sittin’ in my father’s chair? Why can’t I see my daddy no more? | |
Momma, you don’t have to tell me, we all got our secrets. | |
Even then I had a feeling I wouldn’t know the truth for several years to come. | |
Who is this preacher man, and why ain’t he preaching no more? | |
Why’s he sittin’ in my father’s chair? Why can’t I see my daddy no more? | |
Seemed simple enough. Love divided. Innocent eyes don’t fear change. | |
If you’d have told me, then, the cause for departure, you’d see a different man before you today. | |
With thoughts of suicide and my mother on his mind, still I wonder what my father would say: | |
"Priest. No man of his word. Minister of disbelief. | |
A bastard, a liar, a hypocrite. Manipulative motherfucker stole my life from me. | |
Who is this preacher man? Used to call him a friend of mine. | |
Who does this coward think he is in my chair? Why can’t I see my kids no more? | |
I know this preacher man, he ain’t no friend of mine. | |
Now he’s gone and changed the life of my children. | |
Dead preacher I hope to find.” | |
