lyrics

Preacher's Daughter

Bottle of Wine and a cigarette
are two things that I know well
I wasn't raised to tempt the devil
but I've tasted my share of hell
When I wake up in a pool of regret
I am shaken to the core
My friends shake it off and pour another
but I knew I was meant for more

Billy Ray was a preacher's son
and I'm a preacher's daughter
Don't know if I am a chosen one
but I am gonna try harder
I'm living to please my own father

Look to the left of my double bed
there's a stranger next to me
looks like I went and did it again
Hope my daddy doesn't see
The way that a man can treat his baby
it's a crime on either side
Even though I beg forgiveness
I am doing my best to hide.

Billy Ray was a preacher's son
and I'm a preacher's daughter
Don't know if I am a chosen one
but I am gonna try harder
I'm living to please my own father

I'll do my best to please him
but in the end I'm stuck with me
My dad hasn't been a perfect man
but he's tried his best to be
and in the end it all comes down
to lovin and being loved
When we both go to meet our father
he will smile from above

Billy Ray was a preacher's son
and I'm a preacher's daughter
Don't know if I am a chosen one
but I am gonna try harder
to surrender

And I say Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
