(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)
