Lyrics Dean Brody – Black Sheep

I was raised in a small town underneath a steeple
Raised with the good book in my hand
And though I loved the Shepherd, I didn’t mix well with His people
So one day I jumped the fence to find new lands

Now I’m just a black sheep lookin’ for a family
Others just like me wandering ’round
I’m just a black sheep out here in the badlands
Hopin’ I ain’t too damned lost to be found

I hang with the lone wolves, the outcast and the sinners
We drink beer in the taverns Friday nights
We shoot whiskey and we cuss, we throw down, we make up
Workin’ all our guardian angels overtime

I’m just a black sheep lookin’ for a family
Others just like me wandering ’round
I’m just a black sheep out here in the badlands
Hopin’ I ain’t too damned lost to be found

Sometimes late at night I get thinking ’bout my Shepherd
How it broke His big ol’ heart to see me stray
But if I know the hound of heaven, he’s left the flock to find me
And when He tracks me down oh happy, happy day

Cause I’m just a black sheep lookin’ for a family
Others just like me wandering ’round
I’m just a black sheep out here in the badlands
Hopin’ I ain’t too damned lost to be found
Hopin’ I ain’t too damned lost to be found
Found, found, found
Hopin’ I ain’t too damned lost to be found

When that day comes and He takes me to His throne on that mountain
He’ll say welcome home son, you’re family
And I’ll turn ’round and I’ll look out on his heaven of millions
