Wandering Stranger

I'm-I'm a wandering stranger
Honey yes in
Honey yes indeed
I'm a wandering stranger
Honey yes indeed
Who's got every little thing
That a wandering stranger needs
Who might stop in Memphis
California
California bound
Who might stop in Memphis
California bound
Who might reach the ocean
And turn right back around
Momma, momma
I believe your son is
I beleive your son is gone
I said momma, momma
I believe your son is gone
I saw him leaving, momma
With his long coat on
Put my collar up baby
My back against the
Back against the wind
Put my collar up baby
My back against the wind
Ain't it hard to tell
When I'll be back here again
Cause I'm a wandering stranger
That's just what I
That's just what I am
I'm a wandering stranger
That's just what I am
And if you want to try to change me, momma
Leave you where you stand
Understand?
If you see me walking
Talking to my
Talking to myself
If you see me walking
Talking to myself
It's cause I don't need you, momma
I don't need nobody else
I'm going away, baby
Don't you wanna
Don't you wanna go
I'm going away, baby
Don't you want to go
We can stop in New Orleans
On the way back to Chicago
Sweet home Chicago
Let me tell you something
Keep it to your
Keep it to yourself
Let me tell you something
Keep it to yourself
Don't tell your new boyfriend
Don't tell nobody else
If I ever find a home
Wherever it may
Wherever it may be
If I ever find a home
Wherever it may be
You'll be always welcome, momma
To come spend the night with me
But I'm leaving in the morning
Ain't it just my
Ain't it just my stlye
Oh leaving in the morning
Ain't it just my stlye
I'm gonna feel so much better, momma
With another thousand miles
A little red suitcase
Try to keep it
Try to keep it locked
A little red suitcase
Try to keep it locked
But it seems so heavy, momma
You know it just ain't right
If you wanna live easy
Pack your clothes with
Pack your clothes with mine
If you wanna live easy
Pack your clothes with mine
And if you wanna stay hard, momma
Tell you where I'm going
You see me coming
Please unlock your
Please unlock your door
If you see me coming
Please unlock your doors
And don't treat me like no stranger, momma
I've been here before
You say you like me crazy
You glad I lost my
Glad I lost my mind
You like me crazy
And you glad I lost my mind
You're gonna be so glad
When I'm on my way down the line
I'm just trying to tell it
Like you know it
Like you know it is
I'm just trying to tell it
Like you know it is
So fix me one more drink, momma
And give Mr. Entrance one more kiss
I'll soon be standing
By the highway
By the highway side
Oh, I'll soon be standing
By the highway side
Watching the parade of strangers
Pass this wanderer by
I'll be leaving in the morning
Yeah you know it
Yeah you know it's true
I'll be leaving in the morning
Yeah you know it's true
Cause I'm a wandering stranger, momma
And I'm so sick of you
Cause you look at me like I'm the
Strangest wanderer
The strangest wanderer you've ever seen
You look at me like I'm the
Strangest wanderer you've ever seen
And I got so strange
From going where you ain't never been
And I'm proud to be leaving again
