A Stranger In Town

A stranger in town - Dinah Washington

I just arrived on the seventen

Thought i'd see the old gang again

But you know

How they come and go

I'm now a stranger in town

Everywhere everyone i see

Seems to wonder now 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

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

And will i always be

A stranger in my own home town
