Hats Off To The Stranger by Lighthouse Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 1971

Walkin' down by the river
Hangin' down my head
I chanced to stop for a moment
A stranger beckoned and then he said

"Walk down the road of life, a-happy as can be
But not so happy, yeah, that you can't see
Be very careful, mm-hmm, everywhere you go
Take it very slow"

Hats off to the stranger
For tellin' me what he knows
I said, Lord, I hear ya
And I'm walkin' slow

Just a singin' hallelujah, hallelujah
Let a little sunshine down on me
Make this feelin' grow

Walkin' down by the river
His words warmin' up my soul
He called to me from the other side
There's one more thing ya gotta know, yeah
Nobody's perfect, boy, not me or you
It doesn't matter what you say or do
But you could be singin', yeah, a better tune
Singin' whoa oh

Yeah, all the things that I have said
You've probably heard them all before
But the way that you'll hear them from me
Is like you never heard them before

Hats off to the stranger
For tellin' me what he knows
I said, Lord, I hear ya
And I'm walkin' slow, yeah

Hats off to the stranger
For tellin' me what he knows
I said, Lord, I hear ya
And I'm walkin' slow

Yeah, I said
Hats off to the stranger
For tellin' me what he knows
I said, Lord, I here ya
And I'm walkin' slow
Just a singin' Hallelujah
Oh yeah, hallelujah
Let a little sunshine down on me
Make this feelin' grow

A little louder
Hallelujah, sing it out loud, hallelujah
Let a little sunshine down on me
Make this feelin' grow
