I’m a Stranger Here Songtext
von Doc Watson

Well I′m a stranger here
I just float in your town
Yes I'm a stranger here
I just float in your town
And just because I′m a stranger
You don't have to dog me 'round


Sometimes I wonder why
Some people treat a stranger so
Sometimes I wonder why
Some people treat a stranger so
Can′t find a place to stay
I just go from door to door

I′m gonna write home to daddy
To send up my railroad fare
Yeah, write home to daddy
To send up my railroad fare
And boys if he can't send it
Well I don′t mind walkin' there


I′m goin' back home
Have to wear out ninety-nine pair of shoes
Goin′ back home
Have to wear out ninety-nine pair of shoes
And when I get back down to Dixie
Won't have the stranger blues
