Black Sheep

Sittin' in this lonely town

Wonderin' when things are gonna change

Dreamin' my life away and it seems them dreams

They turned into a bunch of dust clouds

Gettin' my nerve up

But my past is pullin' me down

Wonderin' how long

This black sheep can, can stick around

Somebody told me once before

You can never go home again once you leave

Say anything just to steer me away

From the truth of what I who I am and what I believe

So I thanked him for his two cents

With a shake and some sympathy

And I packed up my blue jeans

And I headed for the big prize of my freedom

So bye bye black sheep of the family

Bye bye black sheep how that means so much to me

Bye bye to my friends and to my family

Bye bye black sheep goin' off and set my soul, set it free, free

Times they were changin' I did just a little re-arrangin'

Take a couple chances my progress it advances

To that prize of my freedom, yeah

And it's written in the stars

Steel bars never will a prison cell make

Once I find that sweet home

Or some place I like to call home anyway

Some people will say I'm crazy

Singin' out loud like I do here on the street

When I got a song I'll sing it out loud

And if you don't like that my friend, well I'm gonna say

Bye bye black sheep, black sheep of the family

Bye bye goodbye to my friends

And black sheep you know you always means so much to me

Bye bye to my friends and you been my family

Bye bye black sheep goin' off and set my soul, set it free, free
