"Preacher" lyrics
Preacher come by today, preacher come by today
He talked a whole lot but didn't have much to say
Told me of a place with streets is gold
Told me of a place with streets of gold
He went on to say that God and the devil both want my soul
Said my life was empty, something was missing
Said my life was empty, something was missing
Carried on and on about how his Savior lived in the world above this one
My woman she was hanging clothes on the line
My woman she was hanging clothes on the line
I said "Look out yonder preacher
Now tell me have you ever seen anything as fine"
See how she moves slow, see how she moves slow
You can see I ain't missing nothing when she stoop down low
Preacher closed his Bible and he put his hat on his head
He closed his Bible and he put his hat on his head
He took off down the road, must have been something I said
He talked a whole lot but didn't have much to say
Told me of a place with streets is gold
Told me of a place with streets of gold
He went on to say that God and the devil both want my soul
Said my life was empty, something was missing
Said my life was empty, something was missing
Carried on and on about how his Savior lived in the world above this one
My woman she was hanging clothes on the line
My woman she was hanging clothes on the line
I said "Look out yonder preacher
Now tell me have you ever seen anything as fine"
See how she moves slow, see how she moves slow
You can see I ain't missing nothing when she stoop down low
Preacher closed his Bible and he put his hat on his head
He closed his Bible and he put his hat on his head
He took off down the road, must have been something I said
