And on the crowded street, 
I see a strangers face that looks like me
Now and then there’s a lonesome thought in my mind

Ain’t one soul in the whole world knows my name
Ain’t one soul in the whole world knows my name
But I’ll see it by and by cause it’s written up in the sky
Ain’t one soul in the whole world knows my name
