I wandered again To my home in the mountains Where in youth's early dawn I was happy and free. I look for my friends, But I never could find 'em. I found they were all Rank strangers to me. Everybody I met Seem 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. They've all moved away, Said the voice of a stranger, To that beautiful shore 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 Seem 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.
