Marianne Faithfull - A Stranger on Earth lyrics

Some fools don't know what's right from wrong

But somehow those folks belong

Me, I try for all I'm worth

But I still remain a stranger on this earth

Some people gloom, other folk cry

Me, I have to struggle to keep alive

Ever since the day of my birth

I've been a stranger, stranger on this earth

I try to be what all folks should

Forgetting the bad and doing good

But no matter how I try

My troubles always multiply

Now I've been doing the best I can

Ever since life began

Some day when I prove my worth

I won't be a stranger on earth

Now I've been living the best I can

Ever since my life began

The day's gonna come when I prove my worth

And I won't be no stranger

No, I won't be no stranger

On this earth
