Written by Country Johnny Mathis
[G]My friends all say that I am just a [C]black sheep
And [D7]that Im not wanted here [G]below
They say that Im not worthy to be [C]near them
Please [D7]tell me God where can a black sheep [G]go
I never had no one down here to [C]love me
You [D7]see Ive never met my mom and [G]dad
They went away when I was just a [C]small boy
Not [D7]many kind friends have I ever [G]had
Could [D7]You make room in heaven for a [G]black sheep
Could you [A7]love me and treat me as your [D7]own
[G]Or will I still be treated like an [C]outcast
A [D7]black sheep who must always play [G]alone
The clothes may not be pretty that Im [C]wearing
But [D7]you know that I cant help the way I [G]look
I wonder if youd search the holy [C]pages
And [D7]tell me if my name is in Your [G]book
[G]My friends all say that I am just a [C]black sheep
And [D7]that Im not wanted here [G]below
They say that Im not worthy to be [C]near them
Please [D7]tell me God where can a black sheep [G]go
I never had no one down here to [C]love me
You [D7]see Ive never met my mom and [G]dad
