Preacher Man Lyrics

It was a little white church just down the road

On a Sunday afternoon that was bitterly cold

The preacher full of fire and brimstone spoke

Giving no comfort to hearts that were broke

Her family was shattered, they’d just lost their Mom

To an illness so cruel it kept holding on

Till the doctors said there was nothing to do

But pray that God takes her one day very soon

He said, “Hey, you might see this fine lady once again

When you’re in Heaven with the angels surrounded by friends

But, you might meet the Devil himself

You gotta save your soul and I can help

If you don’t get right with God, you’ll be burnin’ in Hell.”

If you don’t get right with God, you’ll be burnin’ in Hell.”

He’s The Preacher Man

From his pulpit he hammered and beat down the crowd

Shocked silence and fear were emotions allowed

He said, “Eternal life can be within your grasp

If you only believe and you follow the path.”

He said, “Hey, you might see this fine lady once again

When you’re in Heaven with the angels surrounded by friends

But, you might meet the Devil himself

You gotta save your soul and I can help

If you don’t get right with God, you’ll be burnin’ in Hell.”

If you don’t get right with God, you’ll be burnin’ in Hell.”

He’s The Preacher Man

When the preacher was finished, I sang my song

Of hope and forgiveness, of righting the wrongs

There are some things that we don’t understand,

But I don’t believe we’ll forever be damned

He said, “Hey, you might see this fine lady once again

When you’re in Heaven with the angels surrounded by friends

But, you might meet the Devil himself

You gotta save your soul and I can help

If you don’t get right with God, you’ll be burnin’ in Hell.”

If you don’t get right with God, you’ll be burnin’ in Hell.”
