[00:00.00]时代音乐网 www.78497.com[00:06.92]Oh, the little lady preacher
[00:08.92]From the limestone church
[00:11.61]I'll never forget her, I guess
[00:16.05]She preached each Sunday mornin'
[00:17.98]On the local radio
[00:20.61]With a big black Bible
[00:22.23]And a snow-white dress
[00:26.11]She was nineteen years of age
[00:28.17]And was developed to a fault
[00:30.92]But I will admit she knew the Bible well
[00:35.49]A little white lace hanky marked the text
[00:38.49]That she would use
[00:39.99]She'd breathe into that microphone
[00:41.61]And send us all to hell
[00:45.92]She had a guitar picker
[00:47.55]By the name of Luther Short
[00:50.17]A hairy-legged soul, lost out in sin
[00:54.55]She would turn and smile at Luther
[00:56.67]When the program would commence
[00:59.23]With a voice as sweet as angels
[01:01.36]She would break out in a hymn
[01:04.80]I was pickin' for her too with
[01:07.05]What we call the doghouse bass
[01:09.61]I clung to every word that passed her lips
[01:12.55]She was down on booze and cigarettes
[01:16.36]And high on days to come
[01:18.80]And she'd punctuate the prophecy
[01:21.17]With movements of her hips
[01:30.30]The Lord, knows how I loved her,
[01:32.18]He was there each time she preached
[01:34.73]But ol' Luther took her home each Sunday morn'
[01:39.11]Lookin' back I still recall the way
[01:41.36]It hurt my tender pride
[01:43.93]I longed to be a hero
[01:45.68]But they're made not born
[01:49.74]Sometimes ol' Luther showed up
[01:51.80]At the studio half-tight
[01:54.36]And smokin' was a thing he liked to do
[01:58.86]She never said a word to him
[02:01.05]But said a prayer for me
[02:03.43]I told her in a way that
[02:05.36]I'd been prayin' for her too
[02:09.18]One Sunday her old man showed up
[02:11.55]And said that she was gone
[02:13.55]Said she and brother Luther had a call
[02:16.80]I can see me standin' in
[02:20.36]That studio that day
[02:22.99]I had to face the heartbreak,
[02:25.05]Unemployment and all
[02:28.67]I don't know where they are,
[02:30.30]'Cause I ain't seen them people since
[02:33.05]Lord, if I judge 'em let me
[02:34.68]Give 'em lots o' room
[02:37.80]I know ol' Luther Short
[02:39.49]And he's a hard ol' boy to change
[02:43.18]And I've often sat and wondered
[02:45.55]Who it was converted whom
