[Porter Wagoner, Dolly Parton - Daddy Was an Old Time Preacher Man lyrics]
Daddy was an old time preacher man
He preached the word of
God throughout the land
He preached so plain a child could understand
Yes, Daddy was an old time preacher man
He told the people of the need to pray
He talked about God's wrath and Judgment Day
He preached about that great eternity
He preached hell so hot that
You could feel the heat
Daddy was an old time preacher man
Aunt Leona would get up to testify
As we'd sing "In The Sweet By And By"
Then we'd sing "I'm On My Way To Canaan Land"
Yes, Daddy was an old time preacher man
Revivals and camp meetings went for weeks
Folks came from all around to hear him preach
Daddy said if one is saved, it's worth it all
But the aisles were always
Filled at altar call
Daddy was an old time preacher man
He preached the word of
God throughout the land
He preached so plain a child could understand
Yes, Daddy was an old time preacher man
Daddy worked for God but asked no pay
For he believed that God provides a way
We never had a lot, but we got by
Guess it's 'cause the Lord
Was on Daddy's side
Daddy was an old time preacher man
"In the sweet by and by
We shall meet on that beautiful shore"
"I'm on my way to Canaan's land"
Yes, Daddy was an old time preacher man
"In the sweet by and by
We shall meet on that beautiful shore"
"I'm on my way to Canaan's land"
Yes, Daddy was an old time preacher man
He preached the word of
God throughout the land
He preached so plain a child could understand
Yes, Daddy was an old time preacher man
He told the people of the need to pray
He talked about God's wrath and Judgment Day
He preached about that great eternity
He preached hell so hot that
You could feel the heat
Daddy was an old time preacher man
Aunt Leona would get up to testify
As we'd sing "In The Sweet By And By"
Then we'd sing "I'm On My Way To Canaan Land"
Yes, Daddy was an old time preacher man
Revivals and camp meetings went for weeks
Folks came from all around to hear him preach
Daddy said if one is saved, it's worth it all
But the aisles were always
Filled at altar call
Daddy was an old time preacher man
He preached the word of
God throughout the land
He preached so plain a child could understand
Yes, Daddy was an old time preacher man
Daddy worked for God but asked no pay
For he believed that God provides a way
We never had a lot, but we got by
Guess it's 'cause the Lord
