Filho de um Pregador
(O Jimmy Ray, o cara doce, era filho de um pregador, sim, era
Aquele cara, o Jimmy Ray
Era filho de um pregador, sim, era)
Jimmy Ray era filho de um pregador
E quando seu pai vinha visitar, ele ia junto
Quando se reuniam na sala pra conversar
O primo Jimmy me levava pra andar, pelas matas a gente ia passear
Então ele olhava nos meus olhos, Deus sabe, pra minha surpresa
A única pessoa que conseguia me alcançar, era o filho de um pregador, é
O único garoto que podia me ensinar, era o filho de um pregador
Sim, ele era (era), ele era (era), ooh-ooooh, sim, ele era
Ser bonzinho nem sempre é fácil, não importa o quanto eu tente
Quando ele começava a me fazer charme, ele vinha e dizia que tá tudo certo
Me beijava e dizia que tá tudo certo, você pode escapar de novo essa noite?
A única pessoa que conseguia me alcançar, era o filho de um pregador, é
O único garoto que podia me ensinar, ele era o filho de um pregador
Sim, ele era (era), ele era (era), ooh-ooooh, sim, ele era
Como eu me lembro bem, do olhar que havia em seus olhos
Rouba beijos de mim às escondidas
Tirando um tempo pra fazer tempo (fazer tempo), dizendo que ele é todo meu (todo meu)
Aprendendo um com o outro, e vendo o quanto crescemos
O único garoto que conseguia alcançá-la, era o filho de um pregador, é
O único garoto que podia ensiná-la, ele era o doce filho de um pregador
Sim, ele era (é), ele era (é), oooh-oh-oh-oh sim, ele era
A única pessoa que conseguia me alcançar, era o filho de um pregador, é
O único garoto que podia me ensinar, era o filho de um pregador.
