Stranger In My Hometown
I've been a long time traveling,
Rambling round and round.
Yeah, I've been traveling,
Rambling round and round.
Come back here now,
I'm a stranger in my hometown.
Familiar faces,
Lord, there's none around.
Familiar places,
Oh, they're all torn down.
I stand here now,
A stranger in my hometown.
Here's where I was born,
Where I went to school.
Here's where I was born,
And where I went to school.
My mama said, son,
You know, we're just passing through.
I'll leave in the morning.
Ain't no use in hanging 'round.
Leave in the morning.
Ain't no use in hanging 'round.
Lay down tonight,
A stranger in my hometown.
I'm weary from traveling,
Rambling round and round.
Weary from traveling,
Rambling round and round.
There's no turning back.
I'm a stranger in my home town.
