Billy Ray was a preacher's son, and [A] when his daddy would visit [E] he'd come along
When they'd gather round and started [B] talking, that's when Billy would take me walking
Through the backyard we'd go walking, then he'd look into my eyes
Lord, most to my surprise, [E] the only one who could ever reach [A] me
Was the son [E] of a preacher man, the only boy who could ever teach [A] me
Was the son [E] of a preacher man, yes he was, [B] he was, [A] oh yes he was
[E]
Being good isn't always [A] easy, no [E] matter how hard I try
When you started sweet talking to [B] me, you'd come and tell me everything is alright
You'd kiss and tell me everything is alright
Can I get away again tonight?

[D]
How well I [A] fell in love that was in his eyes, stealing kisses from me on the [B] side
Taking time to make time, telling me that he's all [E] mine
Learning from each other's knowing, looking to see how much we grow
