E Billy Ray was a preacher's son AE And when his daddy would visit he'd come along When they'd gather 'round and started talking B That's when Billy would take me walking A-through the back yard we'd go walking Then he'd look into my eyes Lord knows to my surprise
Chorus:
E The only one who could ever reach me AE Was the son of a preacher man E The only boy who could ever teach me AE Was the son of a preacher man BA Yes he was he was mmm yes he was

Being good isn't always easy No matter how hard I'd 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
[repeat chorus]
Bridge:
D Yes he was
How well I remember A The look was in his eyes Stealin' kisses from me on the sly B Takin' time to make time Tellin' me that he's all mine E7 Learnin' from each other's knowin' Look at us here how much we've grown

The only one who could ever groove me Was the son of a preacher man fade
