THE SONG:

“Son of a Preacher Man" is a song written and composed by American songwriters John Hurley and Ronnie Wilkins and recorded by British singer Dusty Springfield in September 1968 for the album Dusty in Memphis.  “Son of a Preacher Man" has been covered by many artists, including Elvis Presley, Foo Fighters and Natalie Merchant, but Dusty’s version has remained the most popular. It was her biggest hit, charting at #9 in the US and #10 in the UK.  “Son of a Preacher Man" found a new audience when it was included on the soundtrack of Quentin Tarantino’s 1994 film Pulp Fiction. There are several cocktail recipes for a drink called “Son of a Preacher Man”. Link to OfficialVideo
