A Stranger In Town

Just arrived on the seventen,

Thought I'd see the old gang again,

But you know how they come and go --

I'm just a stranger in town.

Everywhere, everyone I see

Seems to wonder who I can be;

And I swear, no one seems to care

About a stranger in town.

I saw a cottage on a lonely old street,

The weeds have grown 'round the gate;

Somehow I felt that you would wait here, my sweet;

But it looks like I'm too late.

Guess I'll leave on the twelve - oh - two,

Can't believe that there's no more you;

Is there nothing for me? Will I always be

A stranger in my own home town.
