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` A-through the backyard 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 Ooh 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 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 Ooh Lord knows he was Yes 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 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 Ooh yes he was The only one who could ever reach me He was the sweet-talking son of a preacher man The only boy who could ever teach me I kissed the son of a preacher man The only one who could ever move me The sweet-lovin` son of a preacher man The only one who could ever groove me Ahh ooh ahh
