Bananarama - Preacher Man Lyrics
Its like a magic
I've got to have it
Whatever lies out of reach of me
And to despise it
Just magnifies it
You're bad news disguised
Dressed and painted with lies
But I just can't see
When truth is concealed
How the danger appeals
But my conscience sees
I heard it from the preacher man
He said leave that boy alone
I heard it from the preacher man
He said heaven must have sent you
But the devil's gonna get you
He's gonna do it for you
You're like a black cat
Who always knows that
It's life is a mystery
You mesmerize me
And then you hypnotize me
'Til obsession devours me
You're silky words soothe me
As they move me
To ecstasy
And just as I'm falling
I hear a voice calling
Don't believe
I heard it from the preacher man
He said leave that boy alone
He's no good for you
I heard it from the preacher man
He said heaven must have sent you
But the devil's gonna get you
He's gonna do it for you
You're bad news disguised
Dressed and painted with lies
But I just can't see
When truth is concealed
How the danger appeals
But my conscience sees
I heard it from the preacher man
He said leave that boy alone
He's no good for you
I heard it from the preacher man
He said heaven must have sent you
But the devil's gonna get you
He's gonna do it for you

Bananarama Preacher Man Comments
2020...i forgot about this song....nice one ...greetings from Serbia
Tenemos que ter Buenos oidos par gustar de esta
Cancion.
Leozito.
Let's face it, Banarrama is and always will be AWESOME!!!!!!
Never was a fan of Bananarama, but to me this is one of the best tunes ever made. I sing along happily every time it comes around. Great stuff.
Why this was not pushed in USA
First time I heard this song, I was at a gay bar in Dallas. Knew right away it was Bananarama. Pop Life is still a fantastic album, and the singles released were all incredible.
This was their peak period :)
....ha-HAAA! does ANYBODY remember this song being played AD NAUSEUM, on the short-lived syndicated TV series by Arsenio Hall, "The Party Machine, with Nia Peeples"?
....ha-HAA!! ...this song, "Gonna Make You Sweat", and INXS' "Bitter Tears (Club Mix)" were the ONLY songs they played! It was supposed to represent a nightly, happenin' Club....with 3 songs! THREE SONGS! ...Well, that show got pulled QUICK! >: (
EVERY DAMN TIME I play this song (...well, at least the Shep Pettibone 12" Club Mix, on my Gym playlist), I remember that TIRED show!! ...ah, Early 1991, come back, COME BACK! 🕴️⏲️
Baoobsarama
I really like this song!!
Pop Life is probably bananarama's best album
with "True Confessions"... ;)
Love the ramabanarama version🙊🙉🙈
😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇
Keren is impossibly beautiful in this video.❤️
I remember ROCKING to this . Best dance music in my opinion.
Its like a magic
I've got to have it
Whatever lies out of reach of me
And to despise it
Just magnifies it
Can't obliterate the need
You're bad news disguised
Dressed and painted with lies
But I just can't see
When truth is concealed
How the danger appeals
But my conscience sees
I heard it from the preacher man
He said leave that boy alone
He's no good for you
I heard it from the preacher man
He said heaven must have sent you
But the devil's gonna get you
He's gonna do it for you
You're like a black cat
Who always knows that
It's life is a mystery
You mesmerize me
And then you hypnotize me
Till obsession devours me
You're silky words soothe me
As they move me
To ecstasy
And just as I'm falling
I hear a voice calling
Don't believe
I heard it from the preacher man
He said leave that boy alone
He's no good for you
I heard it from the preacher man
He said heaven must have sent you
But the devil's gonna get you
He's gonna do it for you
You're bad news disguised
Dressed and painted with lies
But I just can't see
When truth is concealed
How the danger appeals
But my conscience sees
I heard it from the preacher man
He said leave that boy alone
He's no good for you
I heard it from the preacher man
He said heaven must have sent you
But the devil's gonna get you
He's gonna do it for you
these lyrics are completely fucked
NO! It's perfect… wash your ears, baby! P.S.: thank-you Kate! :-)
GREAT MUSIC !!!!! BANANARAMA IN 2018 ANYONE?
Keren & Sara are just delicious
The first time I ve heard this tune in 27 years. I d never seen the vid before
then you never searched for it ;-)
Here is the song performed live in Gothenburg and recorded by me: https://youtu.be/GuHkA_F5MPs
Love it!! I doesn't know all this songs so is really good for me all this new tunes this one, look on the floor and move it my direction are really good!!!
az összes mai amerikai magamutogató tehetségtelen tanulhat tőlük , példát vehetnek a 80-as évek zene iparáról.
I loved the Song!!! Cool lyric
That beat at the start is on FIRE
This is actually really dope.
Fantastic song! Great lyrics & sound. Especially love the harmonica solo here. Glad the ladies sang this at their February 24 2018 NYC concert.
Yes! I'd never heard this song before that show, and now I can't get enough of it. So glad they performed this.
harmonica solo's simply wonderful. ;)
Yes! I was there at the concert too! I am so glad they included this song because it truly one of the very best!
@fullimmerzion I'm pretty sure Spice Girls, Bananarama's little sisters, were influenced by this solo for "Say You'll Be There"'s one.^^
LOVE THIS TRACK FROM THE GIRLS! @ 1:11 My favorite lyrics: You're like a black cat, who always knows that, it's life is a mystery. You mesmerize me and then you hypnotize me til obsession devours me... :-)
Performed in Toronto last night!
A whole ass bop
powerful sound!!!!!!!!!!
Such cool Shep Pettibone sound...! Terrific song!
Yes, Shep Pettibone is the greatest!
One of their best songs!
Absolutely
maybe the best one! ;)
Agreed!
Forever best ! ! !
