It's hard being a black sheep in a small town
Some people turn their eyes from you when you come around
Been scared to love
Been scared to change
Been scared of putting shame on your family name
I held my hand so close to my chest
Told myself it was for the best
Scared to love
Scared to change
Scared of putting shame on my family name
Been scared for so long
My brothers are farmers
My sister's a teacher
My mother's a nurse
My dads an auctioneer
How did I end up here
In dusty old bar rooms honky tonks
Singing songs hoping they'd sing along
But I didn't let them see
Zebras not gonna change it's stripes
The good lord knows that I tried
Been scared to love
Scared to change
Scared of putting shame on my family name
Been scared so long
My Brothers are farmers
My sister's a teacher
My mother's a nurse
My dads an auctioneer
How did I end up here
In dusty old bar rooms honky tonks
Singing songs hoping they'd sing along
But I didn't let them see
They say over time it will get better
Sooner or later you'll find your tribe
Your family can be whatever
You need them to be to survive
My Brothers are farmers
My sister's a teacher
My mother's a nurse
My dad's an auctioneer
How did I end up here
In dusty old bar rooms honky Tonks
Singing songs hoping they'd sing along
But I didn't let them see
My Brothers are farmers
My sister's a teacher
My mother's a nurse
My dads an auctioneer
But I found myself here
