She said, "Come in stranger, it's good to have you home" |
|
I hurried through 'cause I knew it was you |
|
When I saw your dog waggin' his tail |
|
Honey why didn't you let me know by mail, you've been gone so long |
|
She said, "Come in stranger I know you're weary from all the miles" |
|
Just sit right there in your easy chair |
|
And tell me all about the places you've been |
|
How long it'll be before you leave again I hope it's a long long while |
|
She said, "Come in stranger |
|
Everything around home is fine" |
|
I've watched and I've waited for you to get back |
|
And I missed you all the time |
|
She said, "Come in stranger oh, how I miss you when you're gone" |
|
I walk the floor and I watch the door |
|
And when I lie awake and wonder where you can be |
|
I'd give anything to have you here with me I get so lonesome all alone |
|
She said, "Come in stranger |
|
And won't you listen to my plea" |
|
Stay long enough so that the one I love |
|
Is not stranger to me |
