Lyrics Stranger to My Happiness - Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings

So many times there was a man
He met a girl and took her hand
He told her, "Never will I leave you my love"
But just as soon as he gone again
She's flapping in the wind
Wondering what she must have been thinking of

She said, "Darling (darling)
I've been in and out so many doors
And I've always tried to keep my head
With all the men I've known before"

I've seen plenty places
That I'll never see again
I've seen a 100, 000 faces
And only called a few my friend

But it's a mystery
Just how you came right in
And stole my heart away
And left me there again

(Feeling like a stranger to my happiness)
To my happiness
(Feeling like a stranger to my happiness)

Now if you think that this a thing
That only evil men can bring
Let me skin this cat another way
There was a man who had a plan
To settle down with Mary Ann
But she left him on his wedding day

He said "Darling (darling)
I've been in and out so many doors
I've always tried to keep my head
With all the girls I've known before"

I've seen plenty places
That I'll never see again
I've seen a 100, 000 faces
And only called a few my friend

But it's a mystery
Just how you came right in
And stole my heart away
And left me there again

I'm feeling
(Feeling like a stranger to my happiness)
I'm feeling like a stranger to my happiness
(Feeling like a stranger to my happiness)
Feeling like a stranger

I'm feelin' (feelin'), I'm feelin' (feelin')
I'm feelin' (feelin'), feelin'
(Feeling like a stranger to my happiness)
I said I feel like a stranger
It feel like a stranger
(Feeling like a stranger to my happiness)
To my happiness
To my happiness
(Feeling like a stranger to my happiness)
I've seen pretty faces
I've been to a lot of places
(Feeling like a stranger to my happiness)
I'm still feelin'
Yeah I'm feelin'
Feeling like, feeling like
Feeling like a stranger to my happiness
(Feeling like a stranger to my happiness)
