about

What better way to welcome you in than with this pleasant and friendly greeting? The rythmn of Allan’s guitar work gives his performances an endearing individuality, while the enthusiastic choruses are no less enjoyable! (more from Allan in volume 2)

lyrics

Hello stranger put your lovin’ hand in mine
You are a stranger, but your a pal of mine
Lord I came down here just see that gal o’ mine
I got in trouble and I’ll soon be doin’ time

But every time I ride a 64th streetcar
I see my baby just a peekin’ through the bars
She bowed her head and waved both hands at me
I’m prison bound and longin’ to be free

Weepin’ like a willow moanin’ like a dove
There’s a girl up country that I really love
Lord I’ll see you when your troubles are like mine
Lord I’ll see you when you haven’t got a dime

Hello stranger put your lovin’ hand in mine
You are a stranger, but your a pal of mine
I need a friend, won’t you be a friend of mine
