Stranger in a Strange Land
Lyrics by Leon Russell

How many days, has it been since I was born
How many years, till I die
But I know anyway
I can make you laugh
I only know how to make you cry

Babies on her way downtown
Such a sight to see
Shares a simple secret with a wise man
He's a stranger in a strange land
Stranger in a strange land
Stranger in a strange land
Stranger in a strange land
Stranger in a strange land

How many years, will it take to see the sun
How many days till I'm done
It's only my confusion
Waiting in the night
Lies by my side when the morning comes
Baby looks around him
Shares a simple tale
Shares it with the fables of a palace with a king
He's a stranger in a strange land

Stranger in a strange land

Don't know what there is to say about the world today
Don't know why people are treating each other so wrong
Not like sisters, not like brothers
No, No, No listen to what I say
Beatles take us far away
From our ecology, our theology, our technology
I said, what a sad, sad state were in
We gotta sit back, relax, get back on the human track
The love, baby, I'm gonna make more time
Yeah you know, I hear the truth, I hear the truth
Would I know if I hear it ring
I hear the truth, gonna hear the children sing
Said a stranger in strange land

Stranger in a strange land
Stranger in a strange land
Stranger in a strange land
Tell me why
Stranger in a strange land
