Stranger Songtext

von Lefty Frizell

Down, while you're diggin' down
Dig a little deeper
No way to get around
We're all in this together
Pretty teenage baby has a baby of her own
No one to talk to, she's got no place to turn
Ain't like she's asking or looking for a free ride
She strips for stranger to keep her baby satisfied

And Stranger, stranger things have happened
Goodness brings a chain reaction
Liberate me from inaction
Stranger, stranger things have happened

Sometimes I don't really know
How I make a difference
Smack dab in the river bed
Next door to the living dead
Smack dab in the river bed
I opened up my heart and listened
Speeding down the highway, sister shared her thoughts with me
And for an hour we even shared a destiny
Her baby's father loves her with brutality
She had a dream God came down and set her free

And Stranger, stranger things have happened
Goodness brings a chain reaction
Liberate me from inaction
Stranger, stranger things have happened
