black sheep

Lyrics

my daddy was a brakeman on a highball traveling train, mama she raised four little children and the family had a good name, and papa and mama wanted all for us they never had, big brother little brother sister too none of them turned out half bad, cept me i'm the black sheep of the family, big brother went to college and became a doctor man, i guess he makes about a million dollars a year off the folks own insurance plan, he's got a big long mercedes benz and a house overlooking the town, he sits in his jacuzzi and he watches the sun go down, and he feels real sorry for me i'm the black sheep of the family, yeah i drive me a big ol' semi truck i'm makin' payments on a two room shack, my wife she waits on tables and at night she rubs my back, and i tell her what my papa said to my mama when he got off a highball train, wake me up early be good to my dogs and teach my children to pray, little sister married a banker yeah he owns a country club, he bought her a big ol' racing horse and a funny lookin' little dog, he buys her big rings and diamonds and a brand new japanese yacht, they like to get together and talk about all the things they've got, but they never mention me i'm the black sheep of the family, yeah i drive me a big ol' semi truck. i'm sayin' woman wake me up early be good to my dogs, and teach my children to pray
