Preacher's Daughter歌词

[00:15.81]His hands turn gold leaf pages
[00:19.32]Then taught me to tie my laces
[00:23.38]He could build a house
[00:25.44]Strong as the good lord's prayer
[00:30.30]Had two girls and never a son
[00:34.13]Left his job and anyone
[00:37.82]For cardboard boxes full of Sunday clothes to wear
[00:43.51]
[00:45.79]Yeah, we're all just who we are
[00:49.83]The apple don't fall far
[00:52.23]
[00:53.16]Preacher's daughter, I love my father
[00:59.67]Turned wine from water in my eyes
[01:08.70]Bound together, sweet surrender
[01:15.51]I forever know that I'm a preacher's daughter
[01:29.90]
[01:31.83]I was the one he could not tame
[01:35.84]Bound to scuff up the family name
[01:39.98]And at seventeen I took off on my own
[01:46.97]And like his will, I would not bend
[01:51.10]I guess I got my nerve from him
[01:55.10]We were made of salt
[01:57.54]We were never made of stone
[02:00.49]
[02:02.48]Preacher's daughter, I love my father
[02:08.91]Turned wine from water in my eyes
[02:18.17]Bound together, sweet surrender
[02:25.11]I forever know that I'm a preacher's daughter
[02:41.39]A preacher's daughter
[02:47.82]
[03:01.51]I took him to the brink
[03:05.90]He forgave me at the kitchen sink
[03:08.87]Like an altar, I laid all my burdens down
[03:16.35]And the day that he passed on
[03:20.41]I lost a little piece of God
[03:24.31]But I see his smile in the son that I have now
[03:29.60]
[03:31.21]Oh, preacher's daughter, I love my father
[03:38.11]Turned wine from water in my eyes
[03:47.14]Bound together, heaven's treasure
[03:53.91]I forever know that I'm a preacher's daughter
[04:10.23]A preacher's daughter
