Capo 1
A Am7
My daddy had a Cadillac, my uncle drove a Ford
D A
One was Satan's Angel and one worked for the Lord
A Am7
They had some hard earned wisdom, they both became my teachers
D A
I was a young disciple of pimps and preachers
A Am7
The school of life was open, each day I went to class
D A
When I didn't pay attention, they kicked me in the ass
A Am7
They were turning out young b***hes and converting non-believers
D A
I was learning from the masters, pimps and preachers
Chorus:
D
One drug me through the darkness
A
One led me to the light
E
One showed me how to love
A
One taught me how to fight
D A G D G D
I guess you can say I am an overachiever
A E A
And I owe a debt of gratitude to pimps and preachers
They kept me under their wings but when I passed the test
They gave me a pinstriped suit and pushed me from the nest
Now I'm standing on the corner, recruiting hungry seekers
I'm starting a new religion, I call it pimps and preachers
Chorus
Stand there and do nothing but if you want to go far
Don't try to please everybody and be proud of who you are
Get out there in the game, don't sit up in the bleachers
That is the philosophy of pimps and Preachers
Chorus
