A Stranger In Town - Ray Charles, David 'Fathead' Newman, Hank Crawford

There’s A New Kid In Town

We’re looking for the king, the new Messiah

We’re following the star shining brighter.

«Old man, won’t you help us if you can,»

He shook his head but he pointed his hand.

There’s a new kid in town,

And he’s lying in a manger down the road.

There’s a new kid in town,

But he’s just another baby I suppose,

Heaven knows,

There’s a new kid in town,

Here in Bethlehem.

I see you’ve traveled far bearing treasures

You say these gifts are for the new King’s pleasures

I’ve heard that a king might come

But up till now there hasn’t been one.

There’s a new kid in town,

And he’s lying in a manger down the road.

There’s a new kid in town,

But he’s just another baby I suppose,

Heaven knows,

There’s a new kid in town,

Here in Bethlehem.

There’s a new kid in town,

And he’s lying in a manger down the road.

There’s a new kid in town,

But he’s just another baby I suppose,

Heaven knows,

There’s a new kid in town,

Here in Bethlehem.
