Made his way out from the Lowlands
The son of a preacher man
Then he seemed to lose direction on his way to the promised land No oh oh oh oh

It started with a woman
And it ended in a bar room fight
The jury would not forgive him
when you take a man within an inch of his life

Well they took away his freedom
Buried his soul inside No oh oh oh


In the company of strangers
You find the enemy within No
And the walls that kept you evil
Keep the faith from getting in
In the company of strangers..........

So he sits behind his grey walls
Staring at the yellow moon
His dreams lie shattered all around him
Casting shadows into his room

Well they took away his freedom
Buried his soul Inside No oh


So the years past by and 1 day...steps outside to the blinding sun
Money in his pockets and his clothes out front There...cause
Under his shirt he wears a gun.........

When they buried him the very next morning
For a holdup that went wrong
In a graveyard full of outlaws
Amid strangers Every one..........
Repeat 2x

In the company....In the company of strangers
Listen
Ive got to get out of here
Gotta get out of here.................
