The Happiest Lamb Songtext

von Audra Mae

I once loved a shepherd
A charming, handsome man
One wave of his hickory stack
And I'd follow him 'round the land

'Til one day I noticed
I weren't the only one
There was all kind of other little pretty young sheep
Havin' all kind of pretty young fun

Hallelujah
I am the happiest lamb
Hallelujah
I am the happiest lamb

I ran to Mother Mary
My face as white as snow
She said, "Kid, you remind me
Of someone I used to know"

Be grateful for your freedom
Remember what I said
No shepherd man alive
Can grow the wool that gets him paid

Hallelujah
I am the happiest lamb
Hallelujah
I am the happiest lamb

I left my flock and headed off
Right to the promised land
Hallelujah
I am the happiest lamb

It's raining, I'm frozen
But I won't sell my wool to buy my shack
'Cause I know it gets much colder
When you let some shepherd sheer it off your back

No shepherd man alive
Can grow the wool that gets him paid

Hallelujah
I am the happiest lamb
Hallelujah
I am the happiest lamb

I left my flock and headed off
Right to the promised land
Hallelujah
I am the happiest lamb

And if you wanna know about me
Just ask around who I am
They'll tell you I am
The happiest lamb
