Triumph - Black Sheep Lyrics
Joey left when he was 16Black leather and blue jeansToo young to take a standGang life was like quicksandPack o' smokes and a bottle o'Jack wasA good friend, that didn't talk back muchYoung dude on a roll,Fast time take a tollBrother was a big shot lawyerSaid the street life's gonna destroys yaSister was an uptown modelSaid your whole life's in that bottleCHORUS:Black sheep, Black sheepBad boy of the familyTwo strikes against him from the startBlack sheep, Black sleepLivin' life out of the streetPaid the price that left a scarGood times and a couple of laughs wereJust what, Joe was afterLove came ina girl named JaneShe tried to keep him tameIt's hard to walk the lineBorn under a bad signThe city was an ice cold placePain was written in Joey's faceLord knows that he was a hard oneSwitchblade and a .38 handgunJoey got two years in the State PennHe's coming backBut he just don't know whenCHORUSDoin' time got Joey thinkin'Started prayin' and he gave up drinkin'Parole's comin' in six months maybeNot knowin' Jane's having his babyCHORUSLeft jail straight as an arrowGonna stay on the straight and narrowHe loves Jane, and he loves little JoeyLord knows
