Come in Stranger

Come in Stranger
(Johnny Cash)

She said, come in stranger,
It's good to have you home.
I hurried through 'cause I knew it was you
When I saw your dog waggin' his tail.
Honey, why didn't you let me know by mail?
You been gone so long.

She said, come in stranger,
I know you're weary from all the miles.
Just sit right there in your easy chair
Tell me about the places you've been.
How long it'll be before you leave again.
I hope it's a long, long while.

She said come in stranger,
Everything around home is fine.
I've watched and waited for you to get back
And I miss you all the time.

She said come in stranger
I miss you when you're gone
I walk the floor and I watch the door,
And then I lie awake, wonder where you can be.
I'd give anything to have you here with me.
It's so lonesome all alone.

She said come in stranger
Won't you listen to my plea
Stay long enough so the one I love
Won't be a stranger to me.
She said come in stranger
Won't you listen to my plea
Stay long enough so the one I love
Won't be a stranger to me.
