the unforgiven (1986) - the preacher lyrics

Loading...

i don’t remember the day the preacher first showed up
but brother, i can tell ya, i remember just how scared i was
daddy said: “a holy man should never scare ya, son.”
but that was a long time ago before the k!llin’ begun

let me tell ya, when the preacher comes
it’s time to cut and run
hang on to your sister, son
this way the preacher comes

then came the day jenny stood up in church and said:
“i seen what you done.”
preacher flashed the winning smile and didn’t seem bothered none
three weeks later, jenny disappeared, this time for good
everyone know’d who done it, no one did nothin’
no one could…

let me tell ya, when the preacher comes
it’s time to cut and run
hang on to your sister, son
this way the preacher comes

summer came early and with it a body on the quarry road
preacher had gone, but the story had stayed, and lord, it growed and growed
i heard tell of him workin’ chautauqua down in galveston
and by the end of june i’d hit the road with my daddy’s stolen gun…
let me tell ya, when the preacher comes
it’s time to cut and run
hang on to your sister, son
this way the preacher comes
