New Stranger Blues
Ramblin' Jack Elliott
Letra

[Intro]
     

[Verse]
                                         
I m a stranger here, just blowed in your town
                                         
I m a stranger here, just blowed in your town
                                                       
Just because I m a stranger everybody wants to dog me around

[Verse]
                                       
Lord, I wonder do my good gal know I m here?
                                       
Lord, I wonder do my good gal know I m here
                                       
Well, if she do she sure don t seem to care

[Verse]
                                       
How can some people dog a poor stranger so
                                       
How can some people dog a poor stranger so
                                               
They should remember they gonna reap what they sow

[Verse]
                                                 
I would stay up North but nothing here that I can do
                                                 
I would stay up North but nothing here that I can do
                                                        
Just hang around the corner and sing the poor stranger blues

[Solo]
     

[Verse]
                                                           
Mama, I m going back South if I wear ninety-nine pairs of shoes
                                                           
Mama, I m going back South if I wear ninety-nine pairs of shoes
                                                             
Then I know I ll be welcome and I won t have the stranger s blues

[Outro]
