Preacher's Daughter - Michelle Malone

I don t know where I m going, but I know where I been

I got to keep moving, you know the road never ends

My daddy keeps praying, my mama she cries

Don t you know that the preachers daughter got a long way to ride

I was taught that the devil would come take my soul

If I didn t do just what my mama she told me

But that was a long time ago, now I m grown

Don t you know that the preacher s daughter ran a long way from home

Now I know that Jesus taught love and peace

Like Budda and Ghandi and Mohammed believed

And I want to love you, please baby please

Can t you see that the preacher s daughter s getting down on her knees

Whenever I go back, go back to the fold

Mama says that she loves me, and she prays for my soul

I say mama don t worry, but she disapproves

Don t you know that the preacher s daughter got a long way to go

I was taught that the devil would come take my soul

If I didn t do just what my mama she told me

But that was a long time ago, now I m grown

Don t you know that the preacher s daughter ran a long way from home
