lyrics

Oh I’m just a country preacher
And I travel from town to town
And everywhere I go there’s a pretty little God-fearing girl
I pick her up and I put her right back down
Oh I pick her up and I put her right back down

Oh Julia

But you made me feel something different
Something honest and lovely inside
You made me want to buy a farm and a pretty little chicken coop
Then I had to swallow my pride
Oh then I had to swallow my pride

Oh Julia

You gave me everything that I thought I could want
You made me want to buy a ring of solid gold
And then I had to go back from LA to pretty little Wichita
You gave me the clap and you gave me a cold
You gave me the clap and you gave me a cold

Oh Julia

Well now I’m right back to preaching
And traveling from town to town
And everywhere I go there’s a pretty little God-fearing girl
I pick her up and I put her right back down
Oh I pick her up and I put her right back down
