Hey mister can you tell me What this world´s about, It might just help me out. I used to be a dreamer, But my dreams have burned, You know how luck can turn. Sometimes it´s hard to find a friendly face, Feel like a stranger to the human race. It´s such a lonely, lonely place. I walk alone in the darkness of the city, Got no place to call home. I might be dyin’ But you can´t hear a sound, ´Cause midnight rain is comin´ down. I´m just a stranger, a stranger in this town. Everybody loves a winner Till the winners lose, And then it´s front page news. Nobody loves a loser When you´re down and out, You know there ain´t no doubt. I´m just a victim of circumstance, Please mister give me a helping hand, Brother won´t you understand. I walk alone in the darkness of the city, Got no place to call home. I might be dyin’ But you can´t hear a sound, ´Cause midnight rain is comin´ down. I´m just a stranger, a stranger in this town. I´m just a victim of circumstance, Please mister give me a helping hand, Brother won´t you understand. I walk alone in the darkness of the city, Got no place to call home. I might be dyin´ But you can´t hear a sound, ´Cause midnight rain is comin´ down. Midnight rain is comin´ down. I´m just a stranger, I’m a stranger in this town, ooo. I mean no danger, I´m a stranger, I´m a stranger I´m a stranger in this town.
