    Story Behind the Song
    Chronology of this songwriter's life...in
    retrospect...telling his story of his own
    life's experiences while we all listen...We
    think it sounds like John Cougar met Bruce Hornsby...Listen and tell us what you think

    Lyrics
    I was born in the summer of '55
    In a small town south of I-5...
    Raised strict and strong
    And country good...
    My folks worked hard
    Did the best they could...

    Well we moved to the city
    In '71...
    Daddy's work kep us
    On the run...Too many people
    So many...so strange
    Peeks & sneeks...
    Someone bummin' spare change!

    Chorus
    Well I'm ...Still a stranger
    In this town
    Well i'm ...Still a stranger
    Oh yes I'm..
    In this town...Whoa in this town

    Sometimes I wonder why I was born
    Where do I fit...Why am I so torn?
    Is the city so evil
    And country so good...
    If the city don't confuse you
    Then nothin' would...

    Chorus

    Everyone's got an angle
    To feather their nest...
    As their minds turn to grapefruit
    And they bore you to death...
    Well I may be stranger...
    But I like it that way
    I'll follow my drummer
    'Till God takes me away

    Chorus

    End
