 OUTFIELD - Stranger In My Own Town Lyrics

J. Spinks, T. Lewis


I still remember what I saw last night
Three small kids stealing money from a poor man
Now that ain't right - no that ain't right
I'm still thinking 'bout the things I heard
Poor old man - he was frightened and afraid of every word
- and it's all so absurd

But times are changing now an d I still care
There must be something we can do out there
I'm like a stranger in my own town baby
I'm like a stranger in my own town baby

I keep on walkin' through these run down streets
Graffiti walls - this ain't nothing like it used to be
Not for you or for me
This town's never been so down before
Looks like a photograph - someone mighta taken in
the second world war
Oh but what was that for
2 191218!1924241n 1n

So many people gave their lives for this
There's nothing left for us to reminisce
I'm like a stranger in my own town baby
I'm like a stranger in my own town baby

When those sad days were over
I'm sure they all thought that weld won
But now as I look around
We're still invaded by everyone

Things won't ever be the same again
I've not lost a town - I've lost my only friend
Oh but where does it end
We'll never change these times with good intent
But right now I know I don't feel content

I'm like a stranger in my own town baby
I'm like a stranger in my own town baby
