lyrics

Here is the blue sheep
Here is the red sheep
Where is the green sheep?

Here is the bath sheep
Here is the bed sheep
Where is the green sheep?

Thin sheep, wide sheep
Swing sheep, slide sheep
Where is the green sheep?

Up sheep, down sheep
Band sheep, clown sheep
Where is the green sheep?

Here is the sun sheep
Here is the rain sheep
Where is the green sheep?

Here is the car sheep
Here is the train sheep
Where is the green sheep?

Wind sheep, wave sheep
Scared sheep, brave sheep
Where is the green sheep?

Near sheep, far sheep
Moon sheep, star sheep
Where is the green sheep?

Where the heck is that green sheep? (Green sheep)
I think it’s time to sleep (Go to sleep)
Where the heck, where the heck is the sheep? (Green sheep)
1, 2, 3, 4

(Guitar solo)

Where the heck is that green sheep? (Green sheep)
I think it’s time to sleep (Go to sleep)
Where the heck, where the heck is the sheep? (Green sheep)
1, 2, 3, 4

Where the heck is that green sheep? (Green sheep)
I think it’s time to sleep (Go to sleep)
Where the heck, where the heck is the sheep? (Green sheep)
1, 2, 3, 4

(Organ solo)

Where is that green sheep?
Turn the page quietly, let’s take a peep.
Here’s our green sheep, fast asleep.
