Daddy was an old time preacher man
Dolly partonHe preached the word of God throughout the land
He preached so plain a child could understand
Yes, Daddy was an old time preacher man
He told the people of the need to pray
He talked about God's wrath and judgment day
He preached about the great eternity
He preached hell so hot that you could feel the heat
Yes, Daddy was an old time preacher man
Aunt Leanona would get up to testify
And we'd sing: In The Sweet By And By
Then we'd sing: I'm On My Way To Canaan Land
Yes, Daddy was an old time preacher man
Revivals and camp meetings went for weeks
Folks came from all around to hear him preach
Daddy said if one is saved it's worth it all
But the aisles were always filled at altar calls
Yes, Daddy was an old time preacher man
Daddy worked for God but asked for no pay
For he believed that God provides a way
We never had a lot but we got by
Guess it's 'cause the Lord was on Daddy's side
Yes, Daddy was an old time preacher man
Ele pregava a palavra de Deus pela terra
Ele pregava tão simples que uma criança podia entender
Sim, Papai era um pastor dos velhos tempos
Ele disse às pessoas da necessidade de orar
Ele falou da ira de Deus e do dia do Julgamento
Ele pregou sobre a vida eterna
Ele pregou que o inferno era tão quente que você podia sentir o calor
Sim, Papai era um pastor dos velhos tempos
Tia Leanona levantava para testemunhar
E nós cantávamos: No Doce Pouco a Pouco
E cantávamos: Estou no Meu Caminho à Terra de Canaã
Sim, Papai era um pastor dos velhos tempos
Pregações e acampamentos duravam semanas
As pessoas vinham de todos os lugares para ouvi-lo pregar
Papai disse que se um é salvo, tudo era válido
Mas os corredores estavam sempre cheios nos chamados de altar
Sim, Papai era um pastor dos velhos tempos
Papai trabalhava para Deus mas não pedia pagamento
Porque ele acreditava que Deus providencia um jeito
A gente nunca tinha muito mas dava um jeito
Acho que é porque o Senhor estava do lado do Papai
Sim, Papai era um pastor dos velhos tempos
