I'm a hack driver in New York City
|
I've got seven kids on the lower east side
|
I'm not a strong man, I'm not very pretty
|
But in rush hour hell you should see me drive
|
|
I'm a dressmaker in Louisiana
|
Stick my finger ain't that a shame
|
People come to haggle and paw on my artwork
|
But no two of my dresses are ever the same
|
|
How strange it seems to be me
|
If tomorrow I opened my eyes
|
And found myself somewhere else
|
I wonder who I'd be
|
|
I'm the house man at a place called the exit
|
The last band I heard bored me to tears
|
But every so often I hear one that moves me
|
Love for the music is what keeps me here
|
|
How strange it seems to be me
|
If tomorrow I opened my eyes
|
And found myself somewhere else
|
I wonder who I'd be
|
|
I'm a rich man
|
I ain't talking 'bout money
|
I'm a blues singer at the Eight by Ten
|
You go out searching for some grand tomorrow
|
Don't worry 'bout me just drop by now and then
|
|
How strange it seems to be me
|
If tomorrow I opened my eyes
|
And found myself somewhere else
|
I wonder who I'd be
|

How Strange It Seems
