Im a son of a preacher man, everybody calls him Brother Jim
Seems like I spend my life tryin to live up to him
Well, he taught me wrong from right but Lord knows I still sin
Hey, Im the son of a preacher man
Daddy said that the narrow road was the only road to take
But now I make my livin on a tour bus rollin down interstates
All nighters with cheaters and liars can sometimes test your faith
Im still the son of a preacher man
Well, the good books say that Jesus ran with a party crowd
So I believe and pray them Pearly Gates are still where Im bound
And I dont know if the life I chose makes my daddy proud of who I am
Im just the son of a preacher man, hey of a preacher man
Most Sunday mornings I spend getting over Saturday nights
While hes down there preaching in the pulpit, singin, I saw the light
And sometimes its hard to look my mirror in the eye
Knowin Im the son of a preacher man
Well, the good books say that Jesus ran with a party crowd
So I believe and pray them Pearly Gates are still where Im bound
And I dont know if the life I chose makes my daddy proud
Hey, Im just the son of a preacher man, oh yeah
Im just the son, Im just the son
Hey, Im the son of a preacher man
Hey, of a preacher man
