Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hello stranger
Put your loving hand in mine
Hello stranger
Put your loving hand in mine
You are a stranger
And you're a pal of mine
[Verse 2]
Well, get up, rounder
Let a working girl lay down
Get up, rounder
Let a working girl lay down
You are a rounder
And you're all out and down
[Verse 3]
Oh, every time
I ride the six and fourth street car
Every time
I ride the six and fourth street car
I can see my baby
Peeping through the bars
[Verse 4]
Well, he bowed his head
And he waved both hands at me
He bowed his little head
Oh, and he waved both hands at me
I'm prison bound
And longing to be free
[Verse 5]
Oh, I'll see you
When your troubles are like mine
I'll see you
When your troubles are like mine
Oh, I'll see you
When you haven't got a dime
[Verse 6]
Weeping like a willow
And moaning like a dove
Weeping like a willow
Oh, and moaning like a dove
There's a man up the country
That I really love
[Verse 7]
Well, hello stranger
Put your loving hand in mine
Hello stranger
Put your loving hand in mine
You are a stranger
And you're a pal of mine
