Son Of A Preacher Man

Billy Ray was a preacher's son And when his daddy would visit he'd come along When they gathered round and started talkin' That's when Billy would take me walkin' To the back yard we'd go walkin' Then he'd look into my eyes Lord knows, to my surprise The only boy who could ever reach me Was the son of a preacher man The only boy who could ever teach me Was the son of a preacher man Yes he was, was, whoooa. Being good isn't always easy No matter how hard I try When he started sweet-talkin' to me He'd come and tell me Everything is alright He'd kiss and tell me Everything is alright Can I get away again tonight? The only boy who could ever reach me Was the son of a preacher man The only boy who could ever teach me Was the son of a preacher man Yes he was, was, whoooa Yes, he was. How well I remember The look that was in his eyes Stealing kisses from me on the sly Taking time to make time Telling me that he's all mine Learning from each other's knowin' Looking to see how much we've grown and The only boy who could ever reach me Was the son of a preacher man The only boy who could ever teach me Was the son of a preacher man Yes he was, was, whoooa. The only boy who could ever reach me Was the sweet-talkin' son of a preacher man The only boy who could ever reach me Was the son of a preacher man The only boy who could ever reach me Was the sweet-talkin' son of a preacher man The only boy who could ever reach me Oh, yes he was, was Oh yes, he was whoooa.
