The Stranger, The Woman, and the Kid
The Stranger, The Woman, and the Kid
Verse 1
How many times have I looked up to someone I didn't really know
And never shared that I did care before I had to go
Change 1
No I fear it's gonna happen here if I don't tell you right now
Before I go my way please accept my praise in the best way I know how
Chorus
I'm the stranger you don't know and you don't know what you did
Many admire the woman in you but I admire the kid
Verse 2
How many children obey their Dad when their old enough to fly
How many children will say your right and they look him in the eye?
Change 2
You didn't get credit was due but you did what was right
Be aware of the stranger there and he can see the light
Chorus
I'm the stranger you don't know and you don't know what you did
Many admire the woman in you but I admire the kid
Verse 3
How many mothers will cry out loud from the pain they have had
How many daddies will take the blame when the children grow up bad?
Change 3
Thank God for all the children who love their parent’s right
Be aware of the stranger there and he can see the light
Chorus
I'm the stranger you don't know and you don't know what you did
Many admire the woman in you but I admire the kid
