Well once I had a wife, I had three children I left 'em in the rain outside of Hilton It's been so many years, I keep forgetting why I guess I had to die to keep on living And once I had a mother, one that bore me But I kill the bore she carry, now I'm only Jack the Strange I'm picking up whatever's thrown me (Oh Lord, it's easy to be strange And everyone I meet is just a face Oh Lord, it's easy to be strange Yea, it's easy to be strange Oh it's easy to be strange I'm living now up north across the border I've been working these few months as a loader I got a woman, I suspect that I won't know her in a year Maybe I'll head south towards Dakota Nobody and no place is gonna keep me You ask me if it's hard, I'll say it's easier by far I'm gonna keep my wheels beneath me Oh Lord, it's easy to be strange Everyone I meet is just a face Oh Lord, it's easy to be strange Oh it's easy to be strange Yea, it's easy to be strange
