Ferlin Husky - Black Sheep lyrics

(Black sheep black sheep)

This world holds many misteries that I don't understand

One is why the wanderlust is born in the heart of a man

I kissed young lips that thrilled me so and set my soul on fire

I'm a black sheep boy and I just can't find the lips my heart desire

Black sheep (black sheep) black sheep (black sheep)

Why do I have to roam why can't I have a happy heart like other guys I've known

This wanderlust in my hungry heart keeps me on the road

I'm a black sheep boy there's a lot more oats that we've gotta sow

Black sheep (black sheep) black sheep (black sheep)

I've known life I've tasted love from a girl that's true and sweet

She haunts me in my dreams at night and I can hardly sleep

I won her self fancy then but my wanderin' heart says no

Black sheep boy with lot more places we've gotta go

Black sheep (black sheep)...

I can hear my mama say as she sits there all alone

My black sheep boy is a coming back never more to roam

Black sheep (black sheep)...

Black sheep (black sheep) black sheep (black sheep) black sheep (black sheep)
