Billy-Ray was a Preacher's son, |
And when his daddy would visit he'd come along, |
When they gathered round and started talking, |
That's when Billy would take me walking, |
Through the back yard we'd go walking, |
Then he'd look into my eyes, |
Lord knows to my suprise: |
Chorus: |
The only one 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, he was, oh yes he was. |
Being good isn't always easy, |
No matter how hard I tried, |
When he started sweet talking to me, |
he'd come tell me everything is alright, |
he'd kiss and tell me everything is alright, |
Can I get away again tonight? |
Repeat Chorus |
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 others knowing, |
Lookin' to see how much we've grown and |
The only one 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, he was, oh yes he was. |
Bridge: |
x4 |
The only one who could ever reach me, |
Was the son of a preacher man |
