Did you ever see a man turned inside out He can come and go without a sound They say ok when they turn you down 'Cos someones always smiling when they really frown
You turf me out can't keep me down 'Cos I'm a stranger on the town Don't put me down
And I only want a place to rest my head But if looks could kill I might as well be dead Get me on my feet take me to the door I'll face the law might even get a bed
You turf me out can't keep me down 'Cos I'm a stranger on the town Don't put me down You turf me out can't keep me down 'Cos I'm a stranger on the town Don't put me down
Don't need me Won't feed me now Just say the word Just smile as I'm thrown out
You turf me out can't keep me down 'Cos I'm a stranger on the town Don't put me down
And the city's new so the faces change I know they're different yet they act the same I've read the script and I know the score I know it's only time before I'm shown the door
You turf me out can't keep me down 'Cos I'm a stranger on the town Don't put me down You turf me out can't keep me down 'Cos I'm a stranger on the town Don't put me down
I've got some money So do you love me now? Now will you run me out And they wonder why I shout
Even in a crowd when you're all alone It's so far from home there's faces all around They stare mean and proud you've gotta get away You gotta get away
So I'm a stranger And though you put me down you know I Aint no clown and you're a stranger 'Cause I'll see you around When the chips are down
And I'm a stranger on the town....
Ooh ooh the city's new the faces change I know they're different yet they act the same
'Cos I'm a stranger on the town
And I only wanna place to rest my head If looks could kill I might as well be dead
'Cos Im a stranger on the town Yes I am
And everyone tries to put you down Nobody wants to have you around
