I'm a stranger here, I just rode in your town
I'm a stranger here, I just rode in your town
And just because I'm a stranger
Everybody dogs me around

Well, I wonder how come they treat a poor stranger so

And they all should remember they've got to reap just what they sow

And sometimes I wonder, do my baby know I'm here?
Yes, sometimes I wonder, do my baby know I'm hеre?

Well and you know I will be welcome, I won't have no no more [?] blues

I'm gonna pack up my shoes, move on down the line
