Preacher Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Ooh, just imagine
Just how good I could look on your shoulder
Ooh, what a vision
How your hand on my neck pulls me closer

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Oh, 'cause I really wanna love you
And I'm trying, dear
I'm trying, but you knock me down
You do
'Cause I really wanna love you
But you're hiding, yeah, you're hiding
You should come on out
Come on out

[Chorus]
Woo-hoo
He's a preacher, but he's preaching a lie
Woo-hoo
I'm a creature with a fever so high
Woo-hoo
And my temptation, you can't escape it
Come on, baby, take a bite
Woo-hoo
Come on, preacher
Let me teach ya tonight

[Verse 2]
Ooh, are you thinking what your father would say if he saw us?
Well, you should admit it
You don't know who you are, but you're hoping

[Pre-Chorus 2]
That I'm gonna get to love you
And I'm trying, yeah
I'm trying, but you knock me down
You do (I know you love it though)
'Cause I really wanna love you
But you're hiding, yeah, you're hiding
You should come on out
Come on out

[Chorus]
Woo-hoo
He's a preacher, but he's preaching a lie
Woo-hoo
I'm a creature with a fever so high
Woo-hoo
And my temptation, you can't escape it
Come on, baby, take a bite (take a bite)
Woo-hoo
Come on, preacher
Let me teach ya tonight

[Bridge]
Let me be your salvation
Just come and take it
I'll be your constellation
So, baby, let's go
Pure dedication
Do you consider
I could be your salvation
So, baby, let's go
Let me be your salvation
Let me be your salvation
I'll be your constellation
Let me be your salvation
Let me be, let me be, let me be

[Chorus]
Woo-hoo
He's a preacher, but he's preaching a lie
Woo-hoo
I'm a creature with a fever so high
Woo-hoo
And my temptation, you can't escape it
Come on, baby, take a bite
Woo-hoo
Come on, preacher
Let me teach ya tonight
