Cletis Carr - Strangers Lyrics
Strangers come and strangers go, I guess that's strange enoughThey say don't ever trust a stranger, and never call his bluffThe cards on the table, they're dealt by Cain and AbelA stranger once taught me about all that stuffStrangers look like you and me, or at least I think they doStrangers speak Swahili, and they live in KalamazooThey'll tell you that the anecdote is just a technicolour raincoatAnd if you can afford it, you can always get the tattooStrangers everywhere, strangers by the pairAll around town and across the nationIt's an alarming situation, strangers, everywhereStrangers live on tree-lined streets and sleep on park benchesStrangers walk on wooden feet and sit on picket fencesSome strangers have their own TV shows and watch their doughAnd trade their bungalow for big palacial residencesA stranger is a friend you've never metI read that on a bus, I couldn't say who wrote itThat's be impetuousStrangers just might change, ah wouldn't that be strangeAnd one day, they might become one of usStrangers everywhere, strangers by the pairAll around town and across the nationIt's an alarming situation, strangers, everywhere
