The Preacher

Well I threw myself a party Well, it was just the other day Well my wife wasn't there but my old buddies were 'Cause somebody was goin' away Well I've lived in this town for a lifetime And I've sinned from beginning to Z And the preacher at our congregation He knew just how to get into me Well he'd stand there so high on his pulpit And I knew when he talked of my soul But that preacher he died there With all of my lies Chorus: And my sins went with him when they put him in the hole My sins went with him when they put him in the hole Well bIess my heart let the good times roll My sins went with him when they put him in the hole Well he drove a Ford Fiesta What the hell kinda car is that Well he'd drive around here tryin' to flush out a queer Or the man that ran over his cat But his heart couldn't take all the pressure Tryin' to find what I already know And my face has gone pious to cheshire Chorus Instrumental Well the new preacher he is a young man And he don't speak as much from the book And my wife doesn't like that about him But he makes up for that with his looks So she stares up at him every Sunday And in her eyes I can see all the lust But I guess that I can't be complaining 'Cause it was me that has broken our trust So I hope she lives long or gets lucky And he passes before she gets old Then she won't have to worry 'bout nothin' Chorus 2: 'Cause her sins will go with him when they put him in a hole Her sins will go with him when they put him in the hole Well bless her heart; let fhe good times roll 'Cause her sins will go with him when they put him in the hole Well bless our hearts; let the good times roll 'Cause our sins will go with him when they put him in the hole Our sins will go with him when they put him in the hole
