Liza Minnelli - Son of a preacher man lyrics

rate me

(Sweet talkin' Jimmy Ray-ay was the so-o-on of a preacher man-an, yes he was now-ow

That ma-a-an, that Jimmy Ray-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay

Was a preacher man's son, yes he was, now-ow-how)

Jimmy Ray was a preacher's son

And when his daddy would visit he'd come along

When they gathered 'round the parlour talkin'

Cousin Jimmy would take me walkin', Through the back woods we'd go walkin'

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

The only one who could ever reach me, Was the son of a preacher man, yeah

The only boy who could ever teach me, Was the son of a preacher man

Yes he was (was), he was (was), ooh-ooooh, yes he was

Bein' good isn't always easy, No matter how hard I try

When he started his sweet-talkin' to me, He'd come'n tell me Everything is all right

Kiss and tell me Everything is all right, Can you get away again tonight?

The only one who could ever reach me, Was the son of a preacher man, yeah

The only boy who could ever teach me, He was the son of a preacher man

Yes he was (was), he was (was), ooh-ooooh, yes he was

How well I remember, The look that was in his eyes

Stealin' kisses from me on the sly-y

Takin' time to make time (make time), Tellin' me that he's all mine (all mine)

Learnin' from each other's knowin', And watchin' to see how much we've grown

The only boy who could ever reach her, Was the son of a preacher man, yeah

The only boy who could ever teach her, He was the sweet talkin' son of a preacher man

Yes he was (yeah), he was (yeah), oooh-oh-oh-oh yes he was

The only one who could ever reach me, Was the son of a preacher man, yeah

The only boy who could ever teach me, Was the son of a preacher man<br />
