Lyrics

She said
"Boy your luck is running out"
She make me feel like a stranger
In my own house

I come stumbling in, at a quarter to three
To the sound of my own dog growlin' at me
Ah-I'm scared to move or turn on a light
Ah, you've got me creepin' around in the dark like a thief in the night

I've got no excuse, ah-i should have known
I've got no place to live, I never feel at home

I walk into the kitchen, to see what's there
Ah-I'm tired and I'm hungry but the cupboard's bare
I've been working all day and all night too
I can't believe this is all I have to come back to

I guess I'll take a look upstairs, in the danger zone
I wonder what I'm doing here, when I never feel at home

I'm a (stranger) stranger in my own house
I've got the keys to the door but I'm still locked out
I'm a (stranger) stranger in my own house
Yeah, I'm gettin' a l'il upset about it too, babe
Woah-I'll huff and I'll puff and blow this house down
Won't be a (stranger) stranger in my own house
I better leave this place, baby! yeah, ah-ha, ah-ha

I see the "do not disturb" sign hanging on my bedroom door
Hey, what is this sheet and pillow laying on the floor?
I guess I wore out my welcome, I hear you loud and clear
It takes so l'il, I think it's time we'd get a few things straight around here

I've got no excuse, I should've known
I've got a place to live, but I never feel at home

I'm just a (stranger) stranger in my own house
I've got the keys to the door but I'm still locked out
(Stranger) stranger in my own house
Yeah, I know you're messing with me girl, go over it, no more, ah-ah
I'll huff and I'll puff and blow this house down
Can't be a (stranger) stranger in my own house
Yeah I know, aaah, whoa ah-ooh

I've got no excuse, I should've known
With a woman like you, I'm better off alone

I'm a (stranger) stranger in my own house
I've got the keys to the door but I'm still locked out
I'm just a (stranger) stranger in my own house
Oh, honey I'm home
I'm just a (stranger) stranger in my own house
You got a lion on your hands girl, not a mouse
I'm just a (stranger) stranger in my own house
Yeah, well, somebody's got to go
I'm just a (stranger) stranger in my own house
I'm just a stranger in my own house
Stranger...stranger...stranger...stranger..
