drew nelson - stranger lyrics
[verse 1]
i used to make my
living on the line back when
detroit steel was
americas pride, some
foreign deal moved in
job moved south
and that is how a family goes from
middle class to hand to mouth
[chorus 1]
oh and i feel like a stranger here
i’ve walked these streets a thousand times
(and) i think i know these buildings but i can’t recall their names
and i feel like a stranger
stranger in my life
[verse 2]
the wife’s just turned fifty
that makes me fifty+two
the state has some re+training thing
but what you gonna do
wе have three daughters
two are still in school
and sally’s gеtting married
sally’s getting married in the fall
[chorus 2]
and i feel like a stranger here
i’ve walked these streets a thousand times
i think i know these faces but i can’t recall their names
and i feel like a stranger
….
[middle section]
momma used to say
trouble always came in threes
and if we take one more it might just
bring us to our knees, and
sometimes i think the wife and i should just
sell it all in one big old yard sale and
migrate …
just migrate with the geese
[verse 3]
i try not to hate the new job
home depot’s not that bad it’s just the
stupid teenage boss with the orange
vest that i can’t stand
and if katie takes the neighbour kid in
couple of days a week, well
i think we’ll keep the bank away
at least for the summer
at least for the summer
[chorus 3]
oh and i feel like a stranger here
i’ve walked these streets a thousand times
i think i know your face but i cannot recall your name
and i feel like a stranger
in my own life
