Strangest thing days I feel like dirt
And then I see the diamond dust on everything
Strangest thing something plucks my nerve
And then I hear a hundred chords a shimmering
Strangest thing the way that one guitar
Can move me more than any symphony
Strangest thing when it stars to pour
I feel the sadness and the pain go out of me
I don't feel sad when Cash wears black
I hear the train comin'
Good things down the railroad track
Ya gotta believe in somethin'

Yeah, the strangest thing that assassin' gun
It was a trained to fire away on anyone
Strangest thing the way a stranger wept for him
And how she spilt a tear of love
Yeah the strangest thing the way that hope can hide itself
Behind the walls of anything
I don't feel sad when Cash wears black
I hear the train comin'
Good things down the railroad track
Ya gotta believe in somethin'

Strangest thing like a potion to unspell
The curse of human suffering
Stangest thing strangest things befall
Even the strongest of us all
