Preacher's daughter

Preacher's daughter Lyrics

She had a habit that she couldn't really stop,
Needed money so she had to hit the block
Nobody knew it so
She steady had to play a role, went to church, but surely tearin up her soul
She'd repent sometimes, then she'd press rewind
Started over messin up her life, couldn't cope
So she had to hit a knee slow, started prayin to the lord, she was a

Preacher's Daughter
Sendin herself the tears [2x]

A preachers daughter so she had common sense
It's ashamed the way her life went, he's too busy though,
Steady savin souls, to realize he lost one of his own
Full of pain and stuck out in the dark
I even heard, her father made his mark
Now she's confused, now she's about to lose everything she thought she ever owned

Preacher's Daughter
Sendin herself the tears [2x]

[Spoken Word]
(It's a cryin shame ohh)
It's a shame she couldn't make a way out
Now I'm sittin here twiddlin my thumbs
Cause her life is gone and her kids are gone
And she lost everything, and see her own father was a preacher
But he couldn't pray for her
Cause he was too busy prayin for everybody else and layin hands on all the women in the congregation
But I guess that's what goes on when you walk right and perfect
And your whole house seems to be perfect
And behind closed doors, everybody suffers from some kind of demon
But nobody knows it, until it all unveils itself
Your own daughter is out there locked out in the dark
She was a preacher's daughter
[woman sings]
Help me lord, help me lord, help me lord
I need you right now, I need you Daddy
Could you hear me prayin, don't you hear me prayin, (she's somebody's daughter)
I need you, say I need you
I don't know what to do, I'm, dyin inside, (she's somebody's baby)
I can't stop the tears from fallin
I need you I need you I need you daddy, oh I need you
