Rank Stranger
Ralph Stanley

I wandered again to my home in the mountains

Where in youth's early dawn I was happy and free

I looked for my friends, but I never could find them

I found they were all rank strangers to me

Everybody I met (everybody I met)

Seemed to be a rank stranger (seemed to be a rank stranger)

No mother nor dad (no mother or dad)

Not a friend could I see (not a friend could I see)

They knew not my name (they knew not my name)

And I knew not their faces (and I knew not their faces)

I found they were all (I found they were all)

Rank strangers to me (rank strangers to me)

They've all moved away, said the voice of a stranger

To a beautiful land by the bright crystal sea

Some beautiful day I'll meet 'em in heaven

Where no one will be a stranger to me

Everybody I met (everybody I met)

Seemed to be a rank stranger (seemed to be a rank stranger)

No mother nor dad (no mother or dad)

Not a friend could I see (not a friend could I see)

They knew not my name (they knew not my name)

And I knew not their faces (and I knew not their faces)

I found they were all (I found they were all)

Rank strangers to me (rank strangers to me)
