[Verse 1] The porch light's burning low And I'm still here alone No party on my street Just the hum of my own bones My daughter rolled me down to town Said, “Hop in, Mama, ride along” She brought me bread and peanut butter Acting like nothing was wrong She handed me hot dogs too Said I didn't eat them right I waved at the kids in back Then she left me for the night [Pre-Chorus] When the sun goes down I know what I'll do Stand on that front porch And look straight through [Chorus] Dream big, dream big That's my word Can't ain't in my mouth It don't get heard Dream big, dream big Black sheep still sings Coat of many colors With a heart that dreams [Verse 2] They say independence means You stand alone and strong But lonely ain't a freedom If the whole world's gone wrong I got every bloodline in me Every story on my skin Ugly ducklin, black sheep Still I let the hope pour in If I don't fit their boxes Let them keep their little names I'm a family full of seasons And I carry every flame [Pre-Chorus] When the dark comes in And the town starts to glow I'll keep my eyes on heaven And let my own heart know [Chorus] Dream big, dream big That's my word Can't ain't in my mouth It don't get heard Dream big, dream big Black sheep still sings Coat of many colors With a heart that dreams [Bridge] For all the people like me Don't give up, stand your ground Even when nobody calls you Let your promise be loud I don't believe in can't There's no such thing in my book I got a dream big living In every place I look [Final Chorus] Dream big, dream big That's my word Can't ain't in my mouth It don't get heard Dream big, dream big Black sheep still sings Coat of many colors With a heart that dreams Dream big, dream big Hold your own Freedom and lonely Ain't the same at home Dream big, dream big Till the whole world sees Ugly ducklin, black sheep Still I believe
