Ain't That Strange 歌词

He said hey my name is Jeb and I'm a Vietnam vet He had a lisp when he talked He said back in the day well I was shot here in the leg And that's why I hobble when I walk And my mama died when I was only five And I was raied by next of kin And my uncle was a crazy alcoholic lunatic And I was raised to be just like him Ain't that crazy, ain't that strange How a stranger told me his story that day Ain't that crazy, ain't that strange I never asked him to tell me but he told me just the same Ain't that strange Well I sat down introduced myself and offered to buy a round He said son another swallow and I'd probably drown Hey Mister why'd tell me your life story today He said son when people listen it takes the pain away Ain't that crazy, ain't that strange How a stranger told me his story that day Ain't that crazy, ain't that strange I never asked him to tell me but he told me just the same Ain't that strange It's ten years later and I still think of him It's a day I'll never forget So today I walked back into that bar To see if he was still sittin' there But the bartender told me that he had died That a man just walked up and took his life Why would anybody go and mess with ol' Jeb He said the stranger must have had a story worse than his Ain't that crazy, ain't that strange How a stranger told me his story that day Ain't that crazy, ain't that strange I never asked him to tell me but he told me just the same Ain't that strange
