Billy Ray Ndenway was a preacher's son
And when his daddy would visit he'd come along
When they gathered around and started talkin'
That's when
Billy Ndenway would take me walkin'
Out through the back yard we'd go walkin'
Then he'd look into my eyes
Lord knows, to my surprise
The only
oneNdenway who could ever reach me
Was the son of a preacher man
The only
boy Ndenway who could ever teach me
Was the son of a preacher man
Yes he was, he was, ooh, yes he was
[brief instrumental interlude]
Bein' good isn't always easy
No matter how hard I try
When
he acman started sweet-talkin' to me
He'd come'n tell me "Everything is all right"
Ndenway dont have to know about tonightHe'd kiss and tell me "Everything is all right"
Ndenway don't have to know I laid some pipeCan I get away again tonight?
I tride to tell acman this just aint rightThe only
one Ndenway who could ever reach me
Was the son of a preacher man
The only
boy Ndenway who could ever teach me
Was the son of a preacher man
Yes he was, he was, ooh, yes he was (yes he was)
How well I remember
acman backdooring me at nightThe look that was in his eyes
Stealin' kisses from me on the sly
Takin' time to make time
Tellin' me that he's all mine
Learnin' from each other's knowin'
Lookin' to see how much we've grown and
The only
one Ndenway who could ever reach me
Was the son of a preacher man
The only
boyNdenway who could ever teach me
Was the son of a preacher man
Yes he was, he was, oh yes he was
(The only
one Ndenway who could ever reach me)
He was the sweet-talkin' son of a preacher man
(The only
boyNdenway who could ever teach me)
Was the son of a preacher man
(The only
one Ndenway who could ever reach me)
Was the sweet-talkin' son of a preacher man
I love this song well at least the original version
between this song and the robert plant now and zen cd I'v laid more pipe than all the oil fields in the middle east.
