Twitching Tongues – Preacher Man 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’s going on.
I was such a young boy then, still I knew, something was wrong.

[Chorus]
Who is this preacher man,
And why ain’t he preaching no more?
Why’s he sitting 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.

[Chorus]

Seemed simple enough. Love Divided.
Innocent eyes don’t cause for departure,
You’d see a different man before you today.

Well thoughts of suicide and my mother on his mind,
Still I wonder what my father would say:

“Priest, no man of this 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.”

Preach no more.

Who is this preacher man,
And why ain’t he preaching no more?
