[00:00.000]Total Strangers - Hank Thompson/Hank Thompson & His Brazos Valley Boys
[00:04.102]Now I was down upon my luck
[00:05.852]And the jobs were hard to find
[00:07.998]I was sort of short on cash
[00:09.702]And my bills way behind
[00:11.427]So I went to see my life long friend
[00:13.597]An old man now by trade
[00:15.409]I figured it's how he had help me out
[00:17.178]With his fortune he had made
[00:19.076]I said old pal I need your help
[00:21.133]I hate to be so bold
[00:22.944]But remember when I saved your life
[00:24.940]Down at the swimming hole'
[00:26.777]Now I'd like to ask a favor
[00:28.741]If you can see your way
[00:30.607]I'd like to have a little loan
[00:32.490]And then I heard him say
[00:34.530]Excuse me total stranger
[00:36.500]I can't seem to recall
[00:38.405]Are you absolutely certain
[00:40.005]That we've ever met at all
[00:42.123]I'd really like to help you out
[00:43.993]As he opened wide the door
[00:45.897]So long total stranger
[00:47.652]That I've never seen before
[00:49.916]Now once I had a girlfriend
[00:51.704]Who really caught my eye
[00:53.729]And when the wife was out of town
[00:55.399]Well I'd court her on the sly
[00:57.389]We'd taken all the nightclubs
[00:59.331]And honky tonk around
[01:01.323]Join at all the parties
[01:02.912]And really do the town
[01:05.124]But then one night my wife came home
[01:07.138]She must have smelled a rat
[01:08.853]She looked around from place to place
[01:11.059]Found where I was at
[01:12.621]Well there we were all cuddled up
[01:14.599]I knew that I was dead
[01:16.409]But before my wife could say a word
[01:18.395]I jumped right up and said
[01:20.287]She's just a total stranger
[01:22.107]Who came in off the streets
[01:24.075]The place is kinda crowded
[01:25.691]So I offered her a seat
[01:27.735]Now I couldn't leave this lady
[01:29.600]Just a standin' on the floor
[01:31.643]She's just a total stranger
[01:33.382]That I've never seen before
[01:35.510]My friend said let's go huntin'
[01:37.530]I've got the gun and chills
[01:39.387]The birds are really flyin'
[01:40.879]And I think we'll do quite well
[01:43.332]He killed a half a dozen
[01:45.094]Then said I supposed
[01:47.127]I really ought to tell you
[01:48.546]That the huntin' season's closed
[01:51.058]About that time he heard a noise
[01:52.786]And he ducked behind a tree
[01:54.721]He took the gun shelled some birds
[01:56.726]And gave them all to me
[01:58.527]Up stepped the old game warden
[02:00.374]And found me standing there
[02:02.379]Before I had a chance to talk
[02:04.360]I heard my friend declare
[02:06.248]He's just a total stranger
[02:08.207]And I was passing by
[02:10.148]I saw this total stranger
[02:11.782]Shoot those birds out of the sky
[02:13.851]It's a shame the way some people
[02:15.986]The laws they do ignore
[02:17.697]Like this total stranger
[02:19.380]That I've never seen before
