Son Of A Preacher Man lyrics

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
the he d look into my eyes
and lord knows to my surprise
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, mmmm yes he was
being good wasn t always easy
no matter how hard i tried
when he started sweet talking to me
he d come and tell me everything was alright
he d kiss and tell me everything was alright
can i get away again tonight
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
lord oh he was yes he was
how well i remember
the look that was in his eyes
stealing kisses from me on sly
taking time to make time
telling me that he s all mine
learning from each other s knowing
looking to see how much we d 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
the only one who could ever reach me
he was a sweet talking son of a preacher man
the only boy who could ever teach me
he was the son of a preacher man
the only one who could ever reach me
a sweet talking son of a preacher man
repeat
