Thrown To The Wolves
Counting Sheep
v1.
I’m just that good ol’ preacher man’s son
And they laughed at me when I was young
Well I’m not that same ol’ boy that you knew back then
Won’t close my mouth, won’t do what they said
Chorus:
And When those hell hounds start a chasing me
And I can’t get no sleep
Looking the devil in the eye while I’m counting sheep
That ol’ preacher man can’t save you or cause you to be
Just look the devil in the eye and go to sleep
v2.
I don’t want your silver and I don’t want your gold
Just love your fellow man and cherish your own soul
I don’t need your heaven and I sure don’t need your hell
To be a better man, I just found myself
Chorus:
And When those hell hounds start a chasing me
And I can’t get no sleep
Looking the devil in the eye while I’m counting sheep
That ol’ preacher man can’t save you or cause you to be
Just look the devil in the eye and go to sleep
Bridge:
I’ve been running all my life on borrowed time from nursery rhymes
Still I just can’t seem to find my peace of mind
Chorus:
And When those hell hounds start a chasing me
And I can’t get no sleep
Looking the devil in the eye while I’m counting sheep
That ol’ preacher man can’t save you or cause you to be
Just look the devil in the eye and go to sleep
