Lyrics
BLACK SHEEP
I CAME OUT FEET FIRST
JUMPED OUT RUNNING TO QUENCH A THIRST
SOME SAY I'M BAD SOME THINK I'M RUDE
HOW I SURVIVED IS ALL ATITUDE
YEAH I GUESS I ARRIVED RIGHT ON TIME
YEAH AS RIPE AS THE FRUIT ON THE VINE
YEAH THEY CALL ME THE BLACK SHEEP
I SAID THEY CALL ME THE BLACK SHEEP
I'M RUNNING WILD WHILE YOU'RE ASLEEP
YOU KNOW THEY CALL ME THE BLACK SHEEP
I'VE ALWAYS DONE AS I PLEASED
I AIN'T NO ONE'S CIRCUS FLEA
THE PATH I TRAVEL IS ALL MY OWN
THIS LIFE I LEAD, I LEAD ALONE
YEAH DON'T TRY TO MESS WITH MY MIND
CAUSE YOU CAN'T THROW ME INTO THE BLIND
SO I'LL DIE ON THE ROAD
PLAY MY HARP UNTIL I GROW OLD
I HURT NOBODY THAT DON'T BOTHER ME
LEAVE ME ALONE JUST LET ME BE
YEAH AND I'LL BE JUST FINE
IF YOU STAY ON YOUR SIDE OF THE LINE
YEAH THEY CALL ME THE BLACK SHEEP
YOU KNOW THEY CALL ME THE BLACK SHEEP
YOU KNOW I WOULD FRUSTRATE LITTLE BO PEEP
THAT'S WHY THEY CALL ME THE BLACK SHEEP
I SAID THEY CALL ME THE BLACK SHEEP
I'M RUNNING WILD WHILE YOU'RE ASLEEP
YOU KNOW I WOULD FRUSTRATE LITTLE BO PEEP
THAT'S WHY THEY CALL ME THE BLACK SHEEP
