I'm a son of a preacher manEverybody calls him Brother JimSeem like I spend my lifeTrying to live up to himWeek he taught me wrong from rightBut Lord knows I still sinHey I'm the son of a preacher manDaddy said that the narrow roadWas the only road to takeBut now I make my living on a tour busRolling down interstatesAll-nighters with cheaters and liarsCan sometimes test your faithI'm still the son of a preacher manWell the good books say that Jesus ran with a party crowdSo I believe and pray them Pearly Gates are still where I'm boundAnd I don't know if the life I chose make my daddy proudOf who I amI'm just the son of a preacher manMost Sunday morningsI spend getting over Saturday nightsSongtexteWhile he's down there preaching in the pulpitSinging, "I Saw The Light."And sometimes it's hardTo look my mirror in the eyeKnowing I'm the son of a preacher manWell the good books say that Jesus ran with a party crowdSo I believe and pray them Pearly Gates are still where I'm boundAnd I don't know if the life I chose make my daddy proudOf who I amI'm just the son of a preacher manI'm just the son, I'm just the sonHey I'm the sonOf a preacher man Aus Songtexte Mania
