[00:11.46]Billy Ray was a preacher's son
[00:13.47]And when his daddy would visit he'd come along
[00:16.66]When they gathered around and started talking
[00:19.20]That's when Billy would take me walking
[00:21.97]Out through the backyard we'd go walking
[00:24.70]Then he'd look into my eyes
[00:27.38]Lord knows to my surprise
[00:29.25]
[00:29.63]The only one who could ever reach me
[00:32.47]Was the son of a preacher man
[00:34.74]The only boy who could ever teach me
[00:37.51]Was the son of a preacher man
[00:39.86]Yes he was, he was, oh yes he was
[00:45.21]
[00:51.24]Being good isn't always easy
[00:53.79]No matter how hard I try
[00:56.46]When he started sweet-talking to me
[00:59.06]He'd come and tell me everything is alright
[01:01.55]He'd kiss and tell me everything is alright
[01:04.48]Can I get away again tonight
[01:06.43]
[01:06.68]The only one who could ever reach me

[01:17.10]Yes he was, he was, oh lord knows he was
[01:22.08]
[01:25.98]How well I remember
[01:28.55]The look that was in his eyes
[01:31.01]Stealing kisses from me on the sly
[01:33.63]Taking time to make time
[01:36.08]Telling me that he's all mine
[01:38.86]Learning from each other's knowing
[01:41.20]Looking to see how much we're growing
[01:43.48]
