This song is a metaphor for "wolf in sheep's clothing" No sexism is intended : )

lyrics

SHEEPSKIN


She speaks to me with the voice of an angel
Woos with golden words
She comes across like a sweet little choir girl
Best I’ve ever heard
I ain’t dumb…I should know better
But I wanna believe again
I keep listening ‘cause I’m so lonely
I know it’s wrong but still I let her in

CHORUS
I can see underneath your sheepskin baby
Look like a wolf to me
You talk outta both sides of your mouth
A curse and a blessing in a prophecy
You got a line like a TV preacher
Soon you’ll be asking for money
You got a touch like a velvet glove
You got something but it ain’t love
Underneath your sheepskin honey…Sheepskin honey

I have to admit I’m an easy target
My heart is full of holes
I keep looking for that perfect lover
But I just don’t know
What it’s gonna take to find that spirit
That speaks to me body and soul
I saw it once but I just wasn’t ready
Now it’s like I’m just going thru the motions

CHORUS

BRIDGE
Heaven or Hell…you just can’t tell
Heaven or Hell…you just can’t tell
Heaven or Hell…you just can’t tell
You can’t make friends with a wolf…She’s gonna BITECHA!

SOLO

CHORUS
I can see underneath your sheepskin baby
Look like a wolf to me
I went to Sunday school and Mama told me
‘bout the good and the evil and the in between
I’ve seen it all and I know the difference
How love can be treachery
You got a touch like a velvet glove
You got something but it ain’t love
Underneath your sheepskin honey…Sheepskin honey
