作词 : Nelson

It was the time of the preacher

When the story began

With the choice of a lady

Love of a man

How he loved her so dearly

He went out of his mind

When she left him for someone

She'd left behind

He cried like a baby

He screamed like a panther
Middle of the night

And he saddled his pony

And went for a ride

It was the time of the preacher

In the year of one

Now the preachin is over

And the lesson's begun
