From the recording ThirtySix
Lyrics
I’ve got to prove that my intentions are good
I’m a living legend but I don’t carve in wood
I shut the pitstops called reality
I am so blind; that I cannot see
Listen to me now who am I? I’m the preacher man
I look quite young of that I’m always told
I know the points without even being told
that limitations are a fact of life
an indiscretion with another mans wife
Listen to me now who am I? I’m the preacher man yeh
I’m the Preacher, the Preacher of love
I’m the Preacher, sent from God above
and if you show me your sin,
you come right on in kneel before, the Preacher of love
My caring wife it’s everything that we share
My loving flock made me a millionaire
We say the words but they don’t mean much
My famous lifestyle keeps me nicely out of touch
Listen to me now who am I? I’m the preacher man
