Artist/Band: Joan Osborne
Lyrics for Song: Son Of A Preacher Man
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Joan Osborne



Billy Ray was a preacher's son

And when his daddy would visit, he'd come along

When they gathered 'round and started talking



Cousin Billy would take me walking

Through the back yard, we'd go walking

Then he'd look into my eyes, Lord, knows to my surprise



The only boy 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

He was, yes, he was, oh yes, he was



Being good isn't always easy

No matter how hard I tried

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 boy 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

He was, yes, he was, oh yes, 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 others knowing

Looking to see how much we'd grown



The only boy who could ever move me

Was the son of a preacher man

The only boy who could ever groom me

Was the son of a preacher man

He was, yes, he was, oh yes, he was
