Black Sheep Lyrics by Reigning Sound

Live at Goner Records

[spoken]
This is a good song from Memphis
[end spoken]
Black sheep lay around drinkin' all day
Readin' poetry, and lyin' in the grass
If you ask him for a drink he will pour you a glass
White sheep drink one glass of beer a year
If you ask him for a shot, he'll say it's all he's
And I climb the cellar
He ain't got nothin' for nobody
Black sheep
Black sheep
Have you any wool
Why, yes, baby I've got three bags full
Black sheep got an old ragged coat of black
But if you tell him that you're cold, he'll take it off his back
Well, white sheep's got 30 coats or more
That he's been savin' up from last year, and the year before
Well he's been savin' them all up for a rainy day
And you know, it rained yesterday
He ain't got nothin for nobody
Black sheep
Black sheep
Have you any wool
Yes, baby I've got three bags full
Yeah
White sheep, hе died a wealthy man
5 gold watches, 6 diamond rings on his hand
Hе had a million dollar funeral, but it's a shame, you know
Nobody came
Well, black sheep left the world in a rough pine box
Everybody came around laughin' and tellin' jokes
And the old women cried for the bad man he'd been
But when they passed the casket, and everybody looked in
You know, it seemed like he grinned
Like he know something
Black sheep
Black sheep
Have you any wool
Yeah, baby I've got three bags full
Line up their dead (?)
And still grinnin'
Like he know somethin'
