[00:11.46]Billy Ray was a preacher's son
[00:13.47]And when his daddy would visit he'd come along
[00:16.66]When they gathered around and started talking
[00:19.20]That's when Billy would take me walking
[00:21.97]Out through the backyard we'd go walking
[00:24.70]Then he'd look into my eyes
[00:27.38]Lord knows to my surprise
[00:29.25]

[00:56.46]When he started sweet-talking to me
[00:59.06]He'd come and tell me everything is alright
[01:01.55]He'd kiss and tell me everything is alright
[01:04.48]Can I get away again tonight

[01:22.08]
[01:25.98]How well I remember
[01:28.55]The look that was in his eyes
[01:31.01]Stealing kisses from me on the sly
[01:33.63]Taking time to make time
[01:36.08]Telling me that he's all mine
[01:38.86]Learning from each other's knowing
[01:41.20]Looking to see how much we're growing

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 around and started talking
That's when Billy would take me walking
Out through the backyard we'd go walking
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, oh yes he was
Being good isn't always easy
No matter how hard I try
When he started sweet-talking 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
Stealing kisses from me on the 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're growing
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 boy who could ever reach me
He was a sweet-talking 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 one who could ever groove me
Was the son of a preacher man
The only one who could ever reach me
Was the son of a preacher man
