Stranger in Blue Suede Shoes (2003 Remaster) - Kevin Ayers

Written by：Kevin Ayers

I walked into this bar

And the man refused

He said we don't serve strangers

In blue suede shoes

We don't give credit and

We don't give way

We have to think about what the people might say

Uh you know what I mean

I said sure man

Oh he gave me a smile that was sickly and

Wet

And I offered him one of my cigarettes

He took it afraid that he might appear rude

Then proceeded to sell me some second class food

Nice guy meet 'em everywhere

He said my oh my I have suffered too long

And this cigarette seems to be very strong

I don't make the rules

I just get what I take

And I guess every rule was made to break

You can take what you like it won't hurt me

'Cause I'm just working for the company

From the green cigarette

He took a long drag

And said I think I'll pick my traveling bag

I'm tired of cheating and wasting my head

And filling the boss's bags with bread

I want to get out in the sun and rain

And feel the wind on my skin again

The world is large and I've got time yet

And by the way thanks for that cigarette

Thank you very much

You

You know I feel like a new man

Yes I do I don't know why

I'd just like to say

Thank you very much indeed

It's a beautiful day

I think I'll be on my way

Right away

I'd like to say

Thank you very much

Yes

I'm getting the hell out of here

Yes I am

Bye bye

That's the end of the message

Thank you very much

Bye bye

Yes

Bye bye

Bye bye

Bye bye

Bye bye

Bye bye

Bye bye

Bye bye

Bye bye
