What can a poor soul do
No hope of pleasing you
I'll move on down the road
And lighten the load
Let's see where this all leads
In this strange country
Make me a simple bet
How long that I'll regret
Losing out on you
The plans we made
Will now fade
Into distant memory
Just like a fallen tree
Laying on the ground
Just like a river winding
Through the canyon
Who knows where I'll end up
This time it could be
The end of my freedom
Strange country
No love there for me
A string of one night stands
Waking head in hands
A stranger lays in my bed
Not even sure if she's dead
She's awake at last
I exit fast
Down the dark winding highway
In a strange country
Make me a simple bet
How long that I'll regret
Losing out on you
The plans we made
Are now part
Of our unhappy history
Strange country
No love there for me
Who knows where I'll end up
This time
Strange country...
