Son of a Preacher Man
Lyricist:John Hurley, Ronnie Wilkins
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' A through the back yard, we'd go walkin' Then he'd look into my eyes, 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, mmm, yes, he was
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 all right He'd kiss and tell me, everything is all right Can I get away again tonight?

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 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
He was the sweet-talking son of a preacher man I guessed he was the son of a preacher man Sweet-lovin' son of a preacher man Ahh, move me
