Sheep of a Different Color Songtext
von Doug MacLeod
Sheep of a Different Color Songtext
Now the left stay left
The right sure stay right
Common ground to common sense, y′all
Lost all in their fight
And I hear the word
That rings to me so hollow
To me, they're all sheep, you know
Just sheep of different color
We spend so much time arguing
Over which way correct
Lost sight of the needy folk
Ain′t got their help yet
And I hear the words, man
To me it rings so hollow
To me, they're all sheep, you know
They're just sheep of different color
California wildfires
Talking ′bout New Orleans
Out of sight, out of mind, y′all
Just a-walkin' unseen
And I hear your words, oh
That rings so hollow
I think you′re all sheep
Just sheep of different color
But you gonna run stories on celebrities, you know
They're the airheads and fools
There′s children hungry, dying in America
Ain't worthy of your news
And man, you look so good
Speaking your words that ring hollow
Same hairspray, different channel, you know
Just sheep of different color
So you, my listener
If you should hear some words to you that ring hollow
I ask you to be an independent thinker
And not just a sheep of different color
The right sure stay right
Common ground to common sense, y′all
Lost all in their fight
And I hear the word
That rings to me so hollow
To me, they're all sheep, you know
Just sheep of different color
We spend so much time arguing
Over which way correct
Lost sight of the needy folk
Ain′t got their help yet
And I hear the words, man
To me it rings so hollow
To me, they're all sheep, you know
They're just sheep of different color
California wildfires
Talking ′bout New Orleans
Out of sight, out of mind, y′all
Just a-walkin' unseen
And I hear your words, oh
That rings so hollow
I think you′re all sheep
Just sheep of different color
But you gonna run stories on celebrities, you know
They're the airheads and fools
There′s children hungry, dying in America
Ain't worthy of your news
And man, you look so good
Speaking your words that ring hollow
Same hairspray, different channel, you know
Just sheep of different color
So you, my listener
If you should hear some words to you that ring hollow
I ask you to be an independent thinker
And not just a sheep of different color
