Key A
[Intro]
[Verse]
Stranger I know where you’ll find her
Down the road from here about a mile and a quarter
You’ll know the place by shackey barn
It stands in the field by a rundown farm
And a pond filled up with stagnant water
[Verse]
Then you’ll see a shack near by
You’ll ask yourself I wonder why
It looks so cold and lifeless all around
Chimney rocks are falling out
It looks as though the fires gone out
And the biggest part of the house is rotted down
[Verse]
Though stranger,I ain’t seen her lately
She don’t come around here like she used to
You’ve got her pictured in your mind
Pretty gentle sweet and kind
You’ve practiced every word you’re gonna say
[Verse]
You’ll call her name, but she won’t here you
She’s in the graveyard near here
She died ten years ago, last May
There was a man she talked about
A man she had to live without
Years ago, he up and left one day
He left her with an unborn child
And a love for him that never died
And an aching heart that sent her to an early grave
[Verse]
Yes stranger I know who you are
I recognized you from a far
But you ain’t never seen me not one time
Yeh I know that you’re my dad
From the pictures that my mama had
And it was me and mama that you left behind
[Verse]
Well, stranger you will find her there
In peaceful sleep on yonder hill
Where we once walked as I do still
To pick her flowers from the field
[Verse]
Cause mama don’t need you anymore
And I don’t need you like before
You can go on back to where you went before
You’re just a stranger
