Strophe 1 
	  
I want to make my luck
in this big big city town
I really had to leave my
little country home
'Cos it got nasty there
and I couldn't stand it anymore
So I took the railroad train
bringing me to here

The station was much crowded
and I got a bit confused
stepped out on the street
where the night was falling down
I saw them city lights
and a lonely moon above
At last I took a bus
down to the riverside

Refrain
	  
I'm a stranger here in town 
- Nobody knows me
I'm a stranger here in town 
- Nobody wants me
I'm a stranger here in town 
- Nobody needs me
I'm a stranger here in town 
- Nobody loves me

Strophe 2
	        
Standing by the riverside
the air was smelling fresh
A ship was passing by 
and I felt my freedom come
Like the seagull by my side
ready to takeoff
Into a brand new life
I dreamt of all the time
 	  
After a long long while
it was getting cold
So I left the docks
to find a place to sleep
Then I found a bar
in the red red light district
Where the people were so nice
that I was getting really drunk

Strophe 3
	  
Then there came a girl to me
asking for a light      
She seemed so cute to me
I liked her at first sight
But she didn't want to stay
and I got another drink
No place for me to stay
no place for me tonight

It was in the morning dawn
when I left the bar
didn't know where to go
didn't know where to go
At last I reached the railroad station
and bought me something to eat
I felt so free tonight
I took the next train home
