BA BA BLACK SHEEP
Traditional with additional lyrics by Sandi Kimmel
Ba Ba Black Sheep, have you any wool?
Yes, sir. Yes, sir. three bags full.
One for my master, one for my dame,
One for the little boy who lives down the lane
Ba Ba Black Sheep, have you any wool?
Yes, sir. Yes, sir. three bags full.
Ba Ba Purple Sheep, have you any wool?
Yes, Ma’am. Yes, Ma’am, three bags full
One for my mother, one for my dad
One for the sister that I wish I had
Ba Ba Purple Sheep, have you any wool?
Yes, Ma’am. Yes, Ma’am, three bags full
Ba Ba Orange Sheep, have you any wool?
Yes I do – there’s some for you
One for the future, one for the past
One for the moment though it won’t last
Ba Ba Orange Sheep, have you any wool?
Yes I do – there’s some for you
Ba Ba Yellow Sheep, have you any wool?
Yes, Indeed – of course, I do.
Some for the sunshine, some for the rain
Some for the laughter and some for the pain
Ba Ba Yellow Sheep, have you any wool?
Yes, Indeed – of course, I do.
Ba Ba Green Sheep, have you any wool?
Yes, and it’s organic too
Good for the earth and good for the air
Good for the water that we all share
Ba Ba Green Sheep, have you any wool?
Yes, and it’s organic too
Ba Ba Rainbow Sheep, have you any wool?
Yes and it is all for you
Some for the spirit, some for the soul
Some for the winter when the wind blows cold
Ba Ba Rainbow Sheep, have you any wool?
Yes and it is all for you
All for you, all for you...

About My Blog:
Soul Feathers - wisps of wisdom and tickles of truth, observations and offerings from my heart and music for the soul. We each have a part to play in this great movie, and mine is gently but consistently toss pebbles into the lake of humanity, and watch the ripples make waves.
Soul Feathers is also the name of the album I recorded with producer Thomas Barquee. He artfully elevated the music to a high vibration of love and healing, truly music for these times. Music has the power to move and motivate, soothe and uplift, and these songs and chants support the journey as the music reflects my own journey.
By sharing my perspective, practical spirituality and positive music, it is my intention to release soul-nourishing pebbles in the sea of our emerging consciousness. By sharing this work with other like-minded and like-hearted friends, you become part of the wave.
Thank you for listening and especially for sharing!
