He was lanky and tall as a beanpole 

And he wind fanned my heart to a flame 

As he looked to the sky 

And there's no wonder why 

For preacher boy was his name 

With his old yaller dog there beside him 

And his eyes throwin' sparks in the sun 

I grew faint from the heat 

From my heart to my feet 

When I knew preacher boy was the one 

Then he didn't say much 

He's the silent kind 

But his arms were strong 

Just the same as his mind 

And my knees grew weak 

As I clung to him 

My preacher boy, my preacher boy 

But he heard the call 

Now he's left me 

For his faith was stronger than i 

And thought we are apart 

Yet he's still in my heart 

My preacher boy, my preacher boy 

My wonderful preacher boy
