Preacher Man Blues Songtext / Lyric

I was walking down the street one day

Saw a preacher man coming my way

Took me aside and he said to me

"Better wash away your sins down in Galilee"



And I said "oh wee, Lord have mercy on me

Oh wee, Lord have mercy

Oh wee, Lord have mercy on me

Lord have mercy on this wicked man"



A preacher man said to me

"Don't try to blame no one else

'Cause after all is said and done

The only one to blame is yourself'"



And he said " oh wee, Lord have mercy on you

Oh wee, Lord have mercy

Oh wee, Lord have mercy on you

Lord have mercy on this wicked man"






Preacher man took my hand

Said "let me lead you to the promised land

Take my advice and listen to me

You better wash away your sins down in Galilee"



And he said " oh wee, Lord have mercy on you

And he said " oh wee, Lord have mercy on you

Oh wee, Lord have mercy

Oh wee, Lord have mercy on you

Lord have mercy on your wicked soul"



Lord have mercy

Lord have mercy



On your wicked soul

On your wicked soul

On your wicked soul



Lord have mercy

Lord have mercy



Lord have mercy

Lord have mercy

Lord have mercy on your wicked soul

On your wicked soul

Lord have mercy

Lord have mercy on your wicked soul.
