Song Lyrics

Some go high and very low
None too different or the same you know
I know 'cos I've seen them come and go

When summer comes the valley hums
With medicine trucks on the sidewalks
Laid out those hands could be holy

Stranger, stranger, hard earned familiar
I've got no jokes
And you hit me up for more than
Just my shrapnel and smokes

Some go high and very low
None too different or the same you know
I know 'cos I've seen them come and go

Stranger, stranger, stranger
Should be listening
Like a river to the end of my curdled song
Nobody knows what madness could come along

Now if you see a being borne into a trap, you free it
They know kindness when they see it
Stranger, strange would it come if you could call it?

Some go high and very low
None too different or the same you know
I know 'cos I've seen them come and go

It's quiet now, the streets are silent
When music out of the arms of community flies, flies

Stranger, stranger, I knew I knew you
Now the bug lights in the bank imbue you
With eyes like decals and a voice like an iron file

Stranger, strange, though the earth be an anvil
I'm not waiting for the hammer to fall
I'm not waiting for anything at all

Stranger, strange, though the earth be an anvil
I'm not waiting for the hammer to fall
I'm not waiting for anything at all

Richards
