Audra Mae - The Happiest Lamb [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

I once loved a shepherd
A charming, handsome man
One wave of his hickory staff
And I'd follow him 'round the land
'Til one day I noticed
I weren't the only one
There was all kinda other little pretty young sheep
Havin' all kinda pretty young fun

Hallelujah, I am the happiest lamb! (x2)

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! (x2)
I left my flock and headed off right to the promise land
Hallelujah, I am the happiest lamb

It's raining, I'm frozen
But I won't sell my wool to buy no shack
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! (x2)
I left my flock and headed off right to the promise land
Hallelujah, I am the happiest lamb

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