Rank Stranger Lyrics - Ricky Skaggs

I wandered again to my home in the mountains 

Where in youth's 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 (everybody I met) 

Seemed to be a rank stranger (seemed to be a rank stranger) 

No mother nor dad (no mother or dad) 

Not a friend could I see (not a friend could I see) 

They knew not my name (they knew not my name) 

And I knew not their faces (and I knew not their faces) 

I found they were all (I found they were all) 

Rank strangers to me (rank strangers to me) 

 

"They've all moved away," said the voice of a stranger 

"To a beautiful land 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 (everybody I met) 

Seemed to be a rank stranger (seemed to be a rank stranger) 

No mother nor dad (no mother or dad) 

Not a friend could I see (not a friend could I see) 

They knew not my name (they knew not my name) 

And I knew not their faces (and I knew not their faces) 

I found they were all (I found they were all) 

Rank strangers to me (rank strangers to me)
