Stranger in my own home town

(Words & music by Percy Mayfield) I'm like a stranger Like a stranger in my own home town I'm like a stranger Like a stranger in my own home town My so called friends stopped being friendly Oh but you can't keep a good man down Oh no, can't get him down I came home with good intentions About 5 or 6 years ago I came home with good intentions About 5 or 6 years ago But my home town won't accept me Just don't feel welcome here no more My home town won't accept me Just don't feel welcome here no more I came home with good intentions About 5 or 6 years ago, yes I did I came home with good intentions About 5 or 6 years ago But my home town won't accept me Just don't feel welcome here no more I'm like a stranger, like a stranger in my own home town Yeah, I'm like a stranger, like a stranger in my own home town My so called friends stopped being friendly Oh but you can't keep a good man down I came home with good intentions About 5 or 6 years ago, yes I did I came home with good intentions About 5 or 6 years ago My so called friends stopped being friendly Oh but you can't keep a good man down I'm like a stranger, like a stranger in my own home town I'm like a stranger, like a stranger in my own home town My so called friends stopped being friendly Oh but you can't keep a good man down
