Lyrics for Black Sheep Boy

Here I am back home again I'm here to rest All they ask is where I've been Knowing I've been west I'm the family's unknown boy Golden curls and envied hair Pretty girls with their faces fair See the shining, the black sheep boy If you love me, let me live in peace And please understand That the black sheep can wear a golden fleece And hold a winning hand I'm the family's unknown boy Golden curls and envied hair Pretty girls with their faces fair See the shining, the black sheep boy Here I am back home again And I'm here to rest All they ask is where I've been Knowing I've been west I'm the family's unknown boy Golden curls and envied hair Pretty girls with their faces fair See the shining, the black sheep boy I'm the family's unknown boy Golden curls and envied hair Pretty girls with their faces fair See the shining, the black sheep boy
