[Cody Jinks - Blacksheep lyrics]
They ask blacksheep of a blacksheep's son
Have you any wool, and I say no sir
I gave it all away
I'm a blacksheep of a blacksheep
And I been one many times
But that don't make me anybody's fool
I gave most to Christ Jesus for
Savin' my soul for that bet with the devil
Who lives down below
There's been some for my mother, my father
My sister, my brothers, my son, my daughter
My lover
There's been some for that homeless man
That I watched die in some ally
With a slit wrist i went home to cry
There's been some for my buddies fightin'
In some rich man's war
Yeah they gave all they could
We don't sing no more
I stand naked and cold as
The crowd gathers 'round
Oo
They ask a blacksheep of a blacksheep's son
Where have you been we've been worried
We've been in need
I've been hidin' on the pathways
Biding my time amongst the wolves
Hungry to feed well I give what I can
Nature of man just needs war
So what can I say
Yeah I'll die someday stripped
Havin' given all the gifts I've received
That is my pain
I stand naked and cold as
The crowd gathers 'round
Oo
Blacksheep of a blacksheep's son
Have you any wool, and I say yeah
I saved some for you
Have you any wool, and I say no sir
I gave it all away
I'm a blacksheep of a blacksheep
And I been one many times
But that don't make me anybody's fool
I gave most to Christ Jesus for
Savin' my soul for that bet with the devil
Who lives down below
There's been some for my mother, my father
My sister, my brothers, my son, my daughter
My lover
There's been some for that homeless man
That I watched die in some ally
With a slit wrist i went home to cry
There's been some for my buddies fightin'
In some rich man's war
Yeah they gave all they could
We don't sing no more
I stand naked and cold as
The crowd gathers 'round
Oo
They ask a blacksheep of a blacksheep's son
Where have you been we've been worried
We've been in need
I've been hidin' on the pathways
Biding my time amongst the wolves
Hungry to feed well I give what I can
Nature of man just needs war
So what can I say
Yeah I'll die someday stripped
Havin' given all the gifts I've received
That is my pain
I stand naked and cold as
The crowd gathers 'round
Oo
Blacksheep of a blacksheep's son
Have you any wool, and I say yeah
I saved some for you
