preacher man

Lyrics

its like a magic, i've got to have it, whatever lies out of reach of me, and to despise it, just magnifies it, can't obliterate the need, you're bad news disguised, dressed and painted with lies, but i just can't see, when truth is concealed, how the danger appeals, but my conscience sees, i heard it from the preacher man, he said leave that boy alone, he's no good for you, i heard it from the preacher man, he said heaven must have sent you, but the devil's gonna get you, he's gonna do it for you, you're like a black cat, who always knows that, it's life is a mystery, you mesmerize me, and then you hypnotize me, 'til obsession devours me, you're silky words soothe me, as they move me, to ecstasy, and just as i'm falling, i hear a voice calling, don't believe, i heard it from the preacher man, he said leave that boy alone, he's no good for you, i heard it from the preacher man, he said heaven must have sent you, but the devil's gonna get you, he's gonna do it for you, you're bad news disguised, dressed and painted with lies, but i just can't see, when truth is concealed, how the danger appeals, but my conscience sees, i heard it from the preacher man, he said leave that boy alone, he's no good for you, i heard it from the preacher man, he said heaven must have sent you, but the devil's gonna get you, he's gonna do it for you
