Versuri Tom T. Hall - The Little Lady Preacher
Versuri-versuri.ro > Versuri Litera T > Versuri Tom T. Hall > Unknown - The Little Lady PreacherOh, the little lady preacher from the limestone church
I'll never forget her, I guess
She preached each Sunday mornin' on the local radio
With a big black Bible and a snow-white dress
She was 19 years of age and was developed to a fault
But I will admit she knew the Bible well
A little white lace hanky marked the text that she would use

Said she and brother Luther had a call
I can see me standin' in that studio that day
I had to face the heartbreak, unemployment and all
