Lyrics:

Preachin' love, pure as a dove
I mean it true, about who I said
A-breathin' love straight from above
I know what to be true, yes, I do

I understand my congregation
Is made about the finer sex
I don't know 'bout segregation
Anyone may read the text

All I do is study you
In your natural habitat
And as I do, I find that you
Are all worth savin' at that

So, gather around-a world and listen
A-life of love, and love is life
And as you see the teardrops glisten
I learn from trouble and strife

I like to be beside the sea
A-diggin' where we came or what for
I think that we were meant to be
That is all I ever saw

I feel so exhilarated
In love with love, with love
I'm-a never expurgated
I just can't tell you enough
That's right



I like to be beside the sea
A-diggin' where we came or what for
I think that we were meant to be
That is all I ever saw

I feel so exhilarated, yeah
In love with love, with love
I'm-a never expurgated
I just can't tell you enough

All I do is study you
In your natural habitat
And as I do I find that you
Are all worth savin' at that

So, gather around-a world and listen
A-life is love, and love is life
And when you see the teardrops glisten
I learn from trouble and strife

Preachin' love, preachin' love
A-preachin' love, a-preachin' love
Preachin' love, preachin' love
I know what to be true, yes, I do
