Come in Stranger

She said come in stranger It's good to have you home I hurried thru 'cause I knew it was you When I saw your dog, waggin' his tail Honey, why didn't you let me know by mail You've been gone so long She said come in stranger I know you're weary from all your miles Just sit right there in your easy chair And tell me all about the places you've been How long it'll be before you leave again I hope it's a long, long while She said come in stranger Everything 'round home is fine I've watched and I've waited for you to get back And I missed you all the time She said come in, stranger Oh how I need you when you're gone I walk the floor and I watch the door And when I lie awake and wonder where you can be I'd give anything to have you here with me I get so lonesome all alone She said come in, stranger And won't you listen to my plea Stay long enough, so that the one I love Is not a stranger to me
