Take the road to Tonganoxie, just before sun catcher lake Go past the cemetery oh child please don't make me wait Cause there's something wrong with what I've done I haven't got much time I can't stay in Kansas I've gotta cross the line So take me down to the Missouri on the way to Arkansas The devil's in a hurry to see what my mamma saw Now I'm on the run I've got no other place to go Except down the stranger road I walked straight out the back door I covered up my tracks My poppa thinks it's criminal so I ain't coming back Cause there's something wrong with what I've done I haven't got much time And what I want and what I need Is all I have in mind Come on come on come on come on The blood runs hot but the eyes are cold Driving down the stranger road Ohhhh The blood runs hot oh but the eyes are cold Driving down to hell stranger road Except down to stranger road Come on come on come on come on Come on come on come on come on Come on come on come on come on
