Thread Name: Lyr Add: American Stranger
Subject: Plains of America
I learned this song off Happy Traums' album American Stranger and I've heard a recordng of an Irish(?) group sing it with more and somewhat different lyrics. I'm looking for additional or alternate verses. It starts out:

I'm a stranger to your country from America I came* There's no one here that knows me or yet can speak my Name* I've traveled your country for to wander for a while* Far from from my bonnie darling I'm many a weary mile.

Thanks, Frankie
