They callin' me the preacher's son, preacher's son
Working till the day is done, day is done
But I gotta know, I gotta know
What the Lord propose, the Lord
I don't think you gotta have a kinda body to pray
Nor do you gotta cover it up or stay bare
All the physical don't matter when I'm finally lain
Don't see the point in keeping us the same
They callin' me the preacher's son, preacher's son
Working till the day is done, day is done
But I gotta know, I gotta know
What the Lord propose, the Lord
They callin' me the preacher's son, preacher's son
Reading through it one by one, one by one
I don't suppose, yeah I don't suppose
That the Lord propose, the Lord
What I wear, how I pray, how I live it's all fair
Rules are same, at the end of the game, we're all bare
As the time passes by things have got to change
When it's all said and done we're all praying to the same sage
They callin' me the preacher's son, preacher's son
Working till the day is done, day is done
But I gotta know, I gotta know
What the Lord propose, the Lord
They callin' me the preacher's son, preacher's son
Reading through it one by one, one by one
I don't suppose, yeah I don't suppose
That the Lord propose, the Lord
One by one, breaking it down
Yeah, one, turn it around
Yeah, I don't see the point in traditions or those superstitions
One by one, can't you see
Not me, but those beside me
That your twisted fantasies, just don't invite me
Don't in-, no don't invite me
They callin' me the preacher's son, preacher's son
Working till the day is done, day is done
But I gotta know, I gotta know
What the Lord propose, the Lord
They callin' me the preacher's son, preacher's son
Reading through it one by one, one by one
I don't suppose, yeah I don't suppose
That the Lord propose, the Lord
