Stranger In Blue Suede Shoes

I walked into this bar and the man refused

He said we don't serve strangers in blue suede shoes

We don't give credit and we don't give way

We have to think about what the people might say

You know what I mean, I said, sure man

Oh, he gave me a smile that was sickly and wet

And I offered him one of my cigarettes

He took it, afraid that he might appear rude

Then proceeded to sell me some second class food

Nice guy, meet 'em everywhere

He said my, oh, my, I have suffered too long

And this cigarette seems to be very strong

I don't make the rules, I just get what I take

And I guess every rule was made to break

You can take what you'd like, it won't hurt me

'Cause I'm just working for the company

From the green cigarette he took a long drag

And said I think I'll pack my traveling bag

I'm tired of cheating and wasting my head

And filling the boss' bags with bread

I wanna get out in the sun and rain

And feel the wind on my skin again

The world is large and I've got time yet

And by the way thanks for that cigarette

Mmm, thank you very much

You know I feel like a new man, yes, I do

I don't know why, I'd just like to say

Thank you very much indeed

It's a beautiful day, I think I'll be on my way

By the way I'd like to say

Thank you very much

Yes, I'm gettin' the hell out of here

Yes, I am, bye, bye

That's the end of the message

Thank you very much

Bye, bye, yes, bye, bye

Bye, bye, bye, bye

Thank you very much
