Sally & The Preacher Songtext
von The Audreys

Sally s waiting by the corner
Bars don t open here til noon
Her hands are shaking like a sinner
She s got to find salvation soon

Preacher standing at the doorway
With a smile to guide them in
His hands full of forgiveness
His heart of emptiness and gin

They found a place, they found a place
Found a place where their ghosts left them alone
So they called it home


Sally looks toward the churchyard
The flock are crowding all around
But she knows not to ask a seeker
For something he has never found

Preacher looks back to the corner
He s seen that smile on her before
But he s not one to sit in judgement
He ll meet her later on the floor

They found a place, they found a place
Found a place where their ghosts left them alone
So they called it home

Sorrow makes a good companion
You know that you re his only one
Though he may leave you to your slumber
He s there in the morning with the sun

They found a place, they found a place
Found a place where their ghosts left them alone
So they called it home
