I wandered again to my home in the mountain
Where in my youth's early days 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.
Ev'rybody I met seemed to be a rank stranger
Not a mother or dad not a friend could I see
They knew not my name and I knew not their faces
I found they were all rank strangers to me.
They all moved away, said a voice of a stranger
"To that beautiful home by the bright crystal sea"
Some beaautiful day I'll meet 'em in heaven
Where no one will be a stranger to me.
Ev'ybody I met seemed to be a rank stranger
No mother or dad not a friend could I see
They knew not my name and I knew not their faces
I found they were all rank strangers to me.
