[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 |
