lyrics

Momma, I’ve got something to ask you, have things been alright?
Dad’s been gone for a while, and the doors been locked up tight
Shouldn’t he be home any minute? Wish I knew what was going on
I was such a young boy then, still I knew, something was wrong
Who is this preacher man, and why ain’t he preaching no more?
Why’s he sittin’ in my father’s chair? Why can’t I see my daddy no more?
Momma, you don’t have to tell me, we all got our secrets
Even then I had a feeling I wouldn’t know the truth for several years to come
Who is this preacher man, and why ain’t he preaching no more?
Why’s he sittin’ in my father’s chair? Why can’t I see my daddy no more?
Seemed simple enough. Love divided. Innocent eyes don’t fear change
If you’d have told me, then, the cause for departure, you’d see a different man before you today
With thoughts of suicide and my mother on his mind, still I wonder what my father would say:
"Priest. No man of his word. Minister of disbelief
A bastard, a liar, a hypocrite. Manipulative motherfucker stole my life from me
Who is this preacher man? Used to call him a friend of mine
Who does this coward think he is in my chair? Why can’t I see my kids no more?
I know this preacher man, he ain’t no friend of mine
Now he’s gone and changed the life of my children
Dead preacher I hope to find.”
Who is this preacher man, and why ain’t he preaching no more?
