Where in youths 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 seemed to be a rank stranger
No Mother or Dad not a friend I could see
They knew not my name and I knew not their faces
I found they were all rank strangers to me
They've all moved away said the voice of a stranger
To a beautiful home 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 seemed to be a rank stranger
No Mother or Dad not a friend I could see
They knew not my name and I knew not their faces
I found they were all rank strangers to me
