brandon rhyder - ain't that strange lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
he said, “hey, my name is jeb and i’m a vietnam vet”
he had a lisp when he talked
said, “back in the day, well, i was shot here in the leg
that’s why i hobble when i walk
my mama died when i was just five
and i was raised by my next of kin
and my uncle was a crazy alcoholic lunatic
i was raised to be just like him”

[chorus]
ain’t that crazy, ain’t that strange?
how a stranger told me a story that day
ain’t that crazy, ain’t that strange?
i never asked him to tell me but he told me just the same
ain’t that strange?

[verse 2]
i sat down and introduced myself and offered to buy a round
he said, “son, another swallow and i’d probably drown
“mister, why’d you tell me your life story today?”
he said, “son, when people listen it takes the pain away”

[chorus]
ain’t that crazy, ain’t that strange?
how a stranger told me a story that day
ain’t that crazy, ain’t that strange?
i never asked him to tell me but he told me just the same
ain’t that strange?

[verse 3]
now it’s 10 years later and i still think of him, it’s a day i’ll never forget
so today i walked back into that bar to see if he was still sittin’ there
but the bartender told me that he had died, that a man had walked in and took his life
why would anybody go mess with old jeb?
he said, “the stranger must have had a story worse than his”

[chorus]
ain’t that crazy, ain’t that strange?
how a stranger told me a story that day
ain’t that crazy, ain’t that strange?
i never asked him to tell me but he told me just the same
ain’t that strange?
strange
