Ferlin Husky Black Sheep lyrics

(Black sheep, black sheep)
This world holds many mysteries
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 wandering 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)
