Son Of a Preacher Man
Billy Ray was the preacher's son
And when his daddy would visit he'd come along
When they gathered 'round and started talkin'
That's when Billy would take me walkin'
Out through the back yard we'd go walkin'
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, ooh, yes, he was
Being good isn't always easy
No matter how hard I try
When he started sweet-talkin' 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, ooh, Lord knows, he was (yes, he was)
How well I remember
The look that was in his eyes
Stealin' kisses from me on the sly
Takin' time to make time
Tellin' me that he's all mine
Learnin' from each other's knowin'
Lookin' to see how much we've grown and
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
Filho do Pastor
Billy Ray era filho do pastor
E quando seu pai vinha, ele ia junto
Quando se reuniam e começavam a conversar
Era aí que Billy me levava pra andar
Saíamos pelo quintal pra dar uma volta
Então ele olhava nos meus olhos
Deus sabe, pra minha surpresa
O único que conseguia me alcançar
Era o filho do pastor
O único garoto que podia me ensinar
Era o filho do pastor
Sim, ele era, ele era, ooh, sim, ele era
Ser bonzinho nem sempre é fácil
Não importa o quanto eu tente
Quando ele começava a me fazer carinho
Ele vinha e dizia: Tudo vai ficar bem
Ele me beijava e dizia: Tudo vai ficar bem
Posso escapar de novo essa noite?
O único que conseguia me alcançar
Era o filho do pastor
O único garoto que podia me ensinar
Era o filho do pastor
Sim, ele era, ele era, ooh, Deus sabe, ele era (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
Dizendo que ele é todo meu
Aprendendo um com o outro
Olhando pra ver o quanto crescemos e
O único que conseguia me alcançar
Era o filho do pastor
O único garoto que podia me ensinar
Era o filho do pastor
Sim, ele era, ele era, oh, sim, ele era
