Preacher Man Lyrics - Son Of A Preacher Man - John Rich

I'm a son of a preacher man, everybody calls him Brother Jim 

Seems like I spend my life tryin' to live up to him 

Well, he taught me wrong from right but Lord knows I still sin 

Hey, I'm the son of a preacher man 

Daddy said that the narrow road was the only road to take 

But now I make my livin' on a tour bus rollin' down interstates 

All nighters with cheaters and liars can sometimes test your faith 

I'm still the son of a preacher man 

Well, the good books say that Jesus ran with a party crowd 

So I believe and pray them Pearly Gates are still where I'm bound 

And I don't know if the life I chose makes my daddy proud of who I am 

I'm just the son of a preacher man, hey of a preacher man 

Most Sunday mornings I spend getting over Saturday nights 

While he's down there preaching in the pulpit, singin', 'I saw the light' 

And sometimes it's hard to look my mirror in the eye 

Knowin' I'm the son of a preacher man 

Well, the good books say that Jesus ran with a party crowd 

So I believe and pray them Pearly Gates are still where I'm bound 

And I don't know if the life I chose makes my daddy proud 

Hey, I'm just the son of a preacher man, oh yeah 

I'm just the son, I'm just the son 

Hey, I'm the son of a preacher man 

Hey, of a preacher man
