Lyrics

I'm like a stranger

I feel unfamiliar or disconnected

Like a stranger in my own home town

I feel like a stranger in the place I should call home

I'm like a stranger

Similar to line 1, emphasizing the feeling of being a stranger

Like a stranger in my own home town

Reiterating the sense of alienation in one's own hometown


My so called friends stopped being friendly

People I considered friends have become unfriendly

Oh but you can't keep a good man down

Despite challenges, a good man cannot be defeated or suppressed

Oh no, can't get him down

Emphasizing the resilience of a good man


I came home with good intentions

I returned home with positive intentions

About five or six years ago

Around five or six years ago from the present moment

I came home with good intentions

Reiterating the positive intentions upon returning home

About five or six years ago

Emphasizing the timeframe of five or six years ago


But my home town won't accept me

The hometown is unwilling to accept or embrace the individual

Just don't feel welcome here no more

Expressing a lack of feeling welcomed in the hometown


My home town won't accept me

Restating the idea of not being accepted by the hometown

Just don't feel welcome here no more

Reemphasizing the feeling of unwelcome in the hometown


I came home with good intentions

Reiterating the positive intentions upon returning home

About five or six years ago, yes I did

Confirming the timeframe of around five or six years ago

I came home with good intentions

Repetition of the positive intentions from several years ago

About five or six years ago

Reiterating the timeframe of around five or six years ago

But my home town won't accept me

Reiterating the hometown's unwillingness to accept the individual

Just don't feel welcome here no more

Reaffirming the feeling of not being welcomed in the hometown

I'm like a stranger, like a stranger in my own home town

Reiteration of feeling like a stranger in one's own hometown

Yeah, I'm like a stranger, like a stranger in my own home town

Emphasizing the continued sense of being a stranger in the hometown

My so called friends stopped being friendly

Restating that supposed friends have become unfriendly

Oh but you can't keep a good man down

Despite challenges, a good man cannot be defeated or suppressed


I came home with good intentions

Reiteration of returning home with positive intentions

About five or six years ago, yes I did

Confirming the timeframe of around five or six years ago

I came home with good intentions

Repetition of the positive intentions upon returning home

About five or six years ago

Reiterating the timeframe of around five or six years ago

My so called friends stopped being friendly

Friends who were once friendly have become unfriendly

Oh but you can't keep a good man down

Despite challenges, a good man cannot be defeated or suppressed


I'm like a stranger, like a stranger in my own home town

Reiteration of feeling like a stranger in one's own hometown

I'm like a stranger, like a stranger in my own home town

Emphasizing the continued sense of being a stranger in the hometown

My so called friends stopped being friendly

Restating that supposed friends have become unfriendly

Oh but you can't keep a good man down

Despite challenges, a good man cannot be defeated or suppressed
