Billy-Ray was a preacher's son
|
And when his daddy would visit he'd come along
|
When they gathered around and started 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 suprise
|
|
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
|
|
Bein' 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 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 lord knows 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're growin'
|
|
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 lord knows he was
|
The only boy who could ever reach me
|
He was a sweet talkin' son of a preacher man
|
The only boy who could ever teach me
|
Was the son of a preacher man
|
|
The only one who could ever move me
|
Was the son of a preacher man
|
The only boy who could ever groove me
|
Was the son of a preacher man
|
Yes he was, he was, oh yeah yeah yes he was
|
