Well I was born in the thirsty earth Showed up in Tucson, Fresh out of Leavenworth Did my time on stale bread and dirty water Nobody told me that lady was the preacher's daughter Yeah heah with her arms she holds me When we kissed, she never told me Lamb for a slaughter She's my preacher's daughter
Got loose from my incarceration I paid a visit to her daddy's congregation Welcome home she said, your lookin' good too Meet my new husband, he's the sheriff who arrested you
Yeah heah with her arms she holds me When we kissed, she never told me Lamb for a slaughter She's my preacher's daughter
YEAH
So I said my congratulations 'Bout lost myself to my infatuation I stole a kiss or two just havin' fun again Sheriff don't like it Now I'm back on the run again
Yeah heah with her arms she holds me When we kissed, she never told me Now I know I'm gonna slaughter Like the desert needs the water Give me back my preacher's daughter Preacher's daughter Preacher's daughter Preacher's daughter YEAH
