Original song 'Firmer Hand / Do Right' performed by Stephen Lee Anderson (Daddy Murphy), Dee Hoty (Mama Murphy) from the Broadway musical Bright Star.
Daddy Murphy:
Where where where’ve you been?
You should’ve been here helpin’ in the kitchen
Where, where, where do you go?
No daughter of mine ought to worry me so
Ensemble:
You’re the black sheep a little lost lamb
Daddy Murphy:
Should’ve raised you with a firmer hand
Ensemble:
Black sheep a little lost lamb
Alice:
All you ever do is reprimand
Mama Murphy:
Shame shame shame on you
There ain’t no limit to the trouble you brew
Daddy Murphy:
Shame shame shame on me
You make a mockery of the family
Ensemble:
You’re the black sheep a little lost lamb
Alice:
When ya gonna love me just the way i am?
Mama Murphy:
I pray that you will change your ways
Alice:
I don’t know why a girl can’t have fun around here.
Daddy Murphy:
Why why why on earth
Have you been so hardheaded since the day of your birth?
Mama Murphy:
Why why in the world don’t you do us all a favor be a good little girl
Ensemble:
You’re the black sheep a little lost lamb
Daddy Murphy:
Should’ve raised you with a firmer hand
Ensemble:
Black sheep a little lost lamb
Mama Murphy:
Always up to your shenanigans
Daddy Murphy:
You gotta start toeing the line.
Alice:
That’s all i ever do around here is toe the line!
You’re always saying
Do right do right do right do
Right for me
You’re always saying
Step in line better mind do or die
Do right for me
You’re always saying
Do right do right do right do
Right for me
And what’s right for me is bad for the family
Daddy Murphy:
I swear I’m going to have to rein you in!
Alice:
You’re always saying
Alice/Ensemble:
Do right do right do right for me
Alice:
You’re always saying
Daddy Murphy/Ensemble:
Step in line
Mama Murphy/Ensemble:
Better mind

Alice:
And what’s right for me
Mama Murphy/Daddy Murphy/ Ensemble:

Daddy Murphy:
Black sheep
Mama Murphy:
Little lost lamb
Mama Murphy/Daddy Murphy/ Ensemble:
Should’ve raised you with a firmer hand
Daddy Murphy:
Black sheep
Mama Murphy:
Little lost lamb
Daddy Murphy:
Should’ve raised you with the back of my hand
