Oh the black sheep boy, he's a son of mine
And I love him for his wicked grin and the mischief in his eyes
He would not harm a soul, no he would not hurt a fly
It's just beyond his control to walk a straight line
'Cause he's a black sheep boy
He's a black sheep boy

Oh the black sheep boy, strikes again
A delight to all the ladies and trouble for the men
And he's bound to break some hearts, kiss the girls and make them cry
Just hope one of those hearts doesn't turn out to be mine
Oh the black sheep boy
Oh the black sheep boy

I can feel the hurt that he tries to hide
Even when he laughs out loud he blames himself inside
Can't stop his hands or make his feet be still
Tells himself he won't but he knows he always will
He's the black sheep boy
The curly headed black sheep boy, yeah

Skippin' out my door is the black sheep boy
And whichever way he runs he's gonna make a lot of noise
And I'm startled by the silence the minute that he's gone
And I pray for his protection and leave the porch light on
For my black sheep boy
For my black sheep boy, yeah
For the black sheep boy
Curly headed black sheep boy
For the black sheep boy, yeah
For the black sheep boy
Curly headed black sheep boy, yeah
Oh, oh
