Stranger in Town Video

LYRICS HERE - I've done this before with bass player friend Doug Lofstrom but wanted to put some streets of Chicago video footage with it. Also, wanted to do the audio track in a more studio version. Hope you like it.

#1
Walk out in the street, you get run down
Nobody cares, you're a stranger in town
Get back on your feet, take a look around
You ain't got a friend, you're a stranger in town

Chorus:
But you've got to be ready whatever comes your way
Gotta be rock steady no matter what they say
You gotta keep goin' yea, you gotta be strong
Gotta keep on rollin' when people do you wrong.

#2
People pass you by, greet you with a frown
Life is just a lie, when you're a stranger in town
No matter how you try, people put you down
You hear a baby cry, you're a stranger in town

Chorus:

#3
Try to bum a meal, the cops shake you down
It's all too real, you're a stranger in town
You think of Jesus, with his thorny crown
You're goin' to pieces, you're a stranger in town

Chorus:

awesome vid Lance, I couldn't agree with you more on the overall feel portrayed and perceived in this production.

Like the song and the video too. Did you do all the music drrums and all?

[archtopbrownie]

My computer did the drums... I did the rest. Glad you liked it. It was fun to do but very time consuming. Don't do many this way because of that. Take care and thanks.

Haha no problem! You need to release this man! (:
