Stranger in a Strange Land (2001 recording) Leon Russell

[Verse 1]
How many years has it been since I was born
How many days until I die
Do I know any ways that I can make you laugh
Do I only know how to make you cry

[Pre-Chorus 1]
When the baby looks around him
It's such a sight to see
He shares a simple secret with the wise man

[Chorus]
Yes he was a stranger in a strange land
Said he was a stranger in a strange land
Stranger in a strange land
I said he was a stranger in a strange land

[Verse 2]
How many years is it gonna take to see the sun
How many miles 'til it's done
Kiss my confusion away in the night
Lay by my side when the morning comes

[Pre-Chorus 2]
And the baby looks around him
Shares a little bed of hay
With the burrow in the palace of the king
