Ray Wylie Hubbard - Preacher lyrics

Preacher come by today
Preacher come by today
He talked a whole lot
Didn't have much to say

He told me of a place with streets of gold
He told me of a place with streets of gold
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 a world above this one

My woman, she was hangin' clothes on the line
My woman, she was hangin' 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 missin' nothin'
When she stooped 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've been something I said
