Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I wanna be tantamount to cordial
Tantamount to good
I wanna be a warm and friendly person
But I don't know how to do it
[Verse 2]
She can't make it to her car
Without makin' a new friend
She's a small-town superstar
Everybody hollerin' her name
[Verse 3]
She's making friends, I'm turning stranger
The people on her end couldn't make it plainer
[Verse 4]
Sometimes I wish we'd never came here
Seein' as I'm held in such disdain here
[Verse 5]
She's making friends, I'm turning stranger
I see lots of normal men yearnin' to obtain her
[Verse 6]
I'm a loser, she's a gainer
That's one thing of which they're dang sure
[Verse 7]
She's out with her friends
And, really, I can't blame her
'Cause when she's home again
She's always still the same her
[Verse 8]
God knows I'd never try to change her
She's my friend and I'm her stranger
[Verse 9]
She's makin' friends, and I'm turnin' stranger
She's makin' friends, and I'm turnin' stranger
