Well I was born in the thirsty earth   Showed up in Tucson,   Fresh out of Leavenworth   Did my time on stale bread and dirty water   Nobody told me that lady was the preacher's daughter   Yeah heah with her arms she holds me   When we kissed, she never told me   Lamb for a slaughter   She's my preacher's daughter      Got loose from my incarceration   I paid a visit to her daddy's congregation   Welcome home she said, your lookin' good too   Meet my new husband, he's the sheriff who arrested you      Yeah heah with her arms she holds me   When we kissed, she never told me   Lamb for a slaughter   She's my preacher's daughter      YEAH      So I said my congratulations   'Bout lost myself to my infatuation   I stole a kiss or two just havin' fun again   Sheriff don't like it   Now I'm back on the run again      Yeah heah with her arms she holds me   When we kissed, she never told me   Now I know I'm gonna slaughter   Like the desert needs the water   Give me back my preacher's daughter   Preacher's daughter   Preacher's daughter   Preacher's daughter   YEAH
