No Stranger

Little Rock I'm just
Down the way
I'm leavin' Shreveport
With my worst headache
Tomorrow night
I'll be Memphis bound
Lord I want them blues to throw my body around
Cause there's a
Little one I here
On the way
My baby's down in Texas callin'
Everyday an
I can't stand
To hear her cry
I know I should be there
But every time she ask why
I say
I'm not here for this talk
I'm out late on my walk
On too any other town
Around familiar faces
Though I'm new
I'm no stranger to strange places
Some are good for weddin rangs
Anniversaries an T-ball games
Makin' time for Maw to see her child
Eavesdrop on a prayer
that it don't turn out wild
While I'm in a
Dark corner In a bar By a table
With an Ol' Jukebox playin' Billy Joe Shaver
I toast a glass of cheap silver alone
Cause I can't stand the thought of ever goin' home
Cause I'm not here for this talk
I'm out late on my walk
On too any other town
Around familiar faces
Though I'm new
I'm no stranger to strange places
I got some years now
I've earned my age
But most my memories
I cannot place
Guess my voice just finally
Up and quit
It hurts to stand lord
It hurts to sit
I've got no money in my billfold
But I gotta picture that I always hold
I asked around an I made a call
I heard a voice soundin'
Grown and tall say
I'm not here for this talk
An why don't you take a walk
Out too any other town
Around familiar faces
You ain't new
You're no stranger to strange places
