《Total Strangers》歌词

[00:00:00] Total Strangers - Hank Thompson

[00:00:04] Now I was down upon my luck

[00:00:05] And the jobs were hard to find

[00:00:07] I was sort of short on cash

[00:00:09] And my bills way behind

[00:00:11] So I went to see my life long friend

[00:00:13] An old man now by trade

[00:00:15] I figured it's how he had help me out

[00:00:17] With his fortune he had made

[00:00:19] I said old pal I need your help

[00:00:21] I hate to be so bold

[00:00:22] But remember when I saved your life

[00:00:24] Down at the swimming hole'

[00:00:26] Now I'd like to ask a favor

[00:00:28] If you can see your way

[00:00:30] I'd like to have a little loan

[00:00:32] And then I heard him say

[00:00:34] Excuse me total stranger

[00:00:36] I can't seem to recall

[00:00:38] Are you absolutely certain

[00:00:40] That we've ever met at all

[00:00:42] I'd really like to help you out

[00:00:43] As he opened wide the door

[00:00:45] So long total stranger

[00:00:47] That I've never seen before

[00:00:49] Now once I had a girlfriend

[00:00:51] Who really caught my eye

[00:00:53] And when the wife was out of town

[00:00:55] Well I'd court her on the sly

[00:00:57] We'd taken all the nightclubs

[00:00:59] And honky tonk around

[00:01:01] Join at all the parties

[00:01:02] And really do the town

[00:01:05] But then one night my wife came home

[00:01:07] She must have smelled a rat

[00:01:08] She looked around from place to place

[00:01:11] Found where I was at

[00:01:12] Well there we were all cuddled up

[00:01:14] I knew that I was dead

[00:01:16] But before my wife could say a word

[00:01:18] I jumped right up and said

[00:01:20] She's just a total stranger

[00:01:22] Who came in off the streets

[00:01:24] The place is kinda crowded

[00:01:25] So I offered her a seat

[00:01:27] Now I couldn't leave this lady

[00:01:29] Just a standin' on the floor

[00:01:31] She's just a total stranger

[00:01:33] That I've never seen before

[00:01:35] My friend said let's go huntin'

[00:01:37] I've got the gun and chills

[00:01:39] The birds are really flyin'

[00:01:40] And I think we'll do quite well

[00:01:43] He killed a half a dozen

[00:01:45] Then said I supposed

[00:01:47] I really ought to tell you

[00:01:48] That the huntin' season's closed

[00:01:51] About that time he heard a noise

[00:01:52] And he ducked behind a tree

[00:01:54] He took the gun shelled some birds

[00:01:56] And gave them all to me

[00:01:58] Up stepped the old game warden

[00:02:00] And found me standing there

[00:02:02] Before I had a chance to talk

[00:02:04] I heard my friend declare

[00:02:06] He's just a total stranger

[00:02:08] And I was passing by

[00:02:10] I saw this total stranger

[00:02:11] Shoot those birds out of the sky

[00:02:13] It's a shame the way some people

[00:02:15] The laws they do ignore

[00:02:17] Like this total stranger

[00:02:19] That I've never seen before
