The Stranger
[v1]
When I was a boy of ten
You were good to me
You gave me rides in your car
And bought me candy bars
I didn't even know your name
But I liked you just the same
And then one day you dropped me off
Eleven miles from home
[ch]
The stranger will come to town
The stranger will let you down
There's nothing you can do
The stranger is here for you
[v2]
My parents always told me
Never take a ride
You said you were my best friend
We'd play games and pretend
You brought me places far away
And you took me home each day
But then one day you dropped me off
Eleven miles from home
[ch]
The stranger will come to town
The stranger will let you down
There's nothing you can do
The stranger is here for you
[br]
Looking back I should have run
But it seemed like so much fun
I guess you liked me a little bit
I never became a statistic
[ch]
The stranger will come to town
The stranger will let you down
There's nothing you can do
The stranger is here for you
