The Stranger - Kenny Rogers[00:00:01]

Stranger I know where you'll find her[00:00:12]

Down the road from here about a mile and a quarter[00:00:15]

You'll know the place by a shackey barn[00:00:23]

That stands in the field by a run-down farm[00:00:26]

By a pond filled up with stagnant water[00:00:29]

Then you'll see a shack nearby you'll ask yourself[00:00:37]

I wonder why it looks so cold and lifeless all around[00:00:41]

Chimney rocks are fallin' out it looks as though[00:00:49]

The fire's gone out and the biggest part[00:00:53]

Of the house is rotted down[00:00:56]

Though stranger I ain't seen her lately[00:01:03]

She don't come around here like she used to[00:01:11]

You've got her pictured in your mind[00:01:17]

Pretty gentle sweet and kind[00:01:20]

You've practiced every word you're gonna say[00:01:23]

You'll call her name but she won't hear you[00:01:31]

She's in the graveyard near you[00:01:35]

She died ten years ago last May[00:01:37]

There was a man she talked about a man she had to live without[00:01:51]

Years ago he just turned and left one day[00:01:57]

He left her with an unborn child[00:02:02]

And a love for him that never died[00:02:05]

And an aching heart that sent her to an early grave[00:02:08]

Yes stranger I know who you are I recognized you from afar[00:02:16]

But you ain't never seen me not one time[00:02:22]

Yes I know that you're my dad[00:02:28]

From pictures that my Momma had[00:02:31]

And it was me and Momma that you left behind[00:02:34]

Stranger you will find her there[00:02:42]

In a peaceful sleep on yonder hill[00:02:51]

Where we once walked as I do still[00:02:57]

To pick her flowers from the field[00:03:03]

Momma don't need you anymore[00:03:11]

And I don't need you like before[00:03:13]

You can go on back to where you went before[00:03:16]

You're just a stranger[00:03:24]
