I'm a stranger here And I just blown in your town I'm a stranger here And I just blown in your town Just because I'm a stranger Everybody doggin' me around Well, I wonder how come They treat a poor stranger so Well, I wonder how come They treat a poor stranger so And they all should remember They're gonna reap just what they sow Well, I'm goin' down south If I wear out 99 pair of shoes Well, I'm goin' down south If I wear out 99 pair of shoes You know I will be welcome And I won't have these stranger blues And I won't have these stranger blues And I won't have these stranger blues
