Stranger in our town

     (Vs 1)     The town's gossip "ooh" and yes talk of the town "ah" - -

                     And here we go again -  because of this man - just living

                     His life alone in this small town - - "yeah" - being our 

                     Oasis - peaceful and most living here - - retired

                     In our great state of North Carolina

    (Vs 2)     This man don't talk much - mostly quiet and to 

                     Himself - - always just a friendly hello - good day

                     Or just a gesture with weather - and goes on his 

                     Way - - strange he may seem - with our town folks all around -

                     But with me - not strange at all - you know just let it go

 

     (C)          So please - drop it all - let it fall - with little things 

                     This all brings - and don't judge a person or book 

                     By it's cover - be friendly - stay passionate to everybody

                     You meet and yes curious that's o.k. - but only in a good way -

                     Look on both sides of a stranger - talk find out why to you him

                     Being strange - and to this kind and pleasant man - why he is -

                     The way he is - this stranger in our town

 

     (Vs 3)     but I took the time - and kind of kept him boxed in - just him

                     And I - and we talked of so many things - and come to find

                     Out - as we both sat on this bench relaxing in our small 

                     Gathering spot - along our known walking trail "Sad" this 

                     Gentleman once had family - but lost all

 

     (Vs 4)     from a single plane crash visiting his elderly parents - who

                     Have since than passed on - and all this happened while being 

                     Away - as a traveling salesman - many years ago - my life

                     Destroyed at that moment - my family gone - and now being 

                     Alone until two strangers came along - you and I and took me

                     From this shell I was in and realized now my friend - I must go on

 

     (C)          So please - drop it all - let it fall - with little things

                    This all brings - and don't judge a person or book

                    By it's cover - be friendly - stay passionate to everybody

                    You meet and yes curious that's o.k. - but only in a good way -

                    Look on both sides of a stranger - talk find out why to you him

                    Being strange - and to this kind and pleasant man - why he is -

                    The way he is - this stranger in our town
