Is it a mean streak
you'd swear you'd swear
we never seen a stranger around here
is it the way the dust clings to the air
but You'd swear you'd swear

Is it a mean streak
a desolation sound
a copy of bizarro but nothing's that far down
a mean streak on a western swing
on TV saying the damnedest thing

Meanstreak
you'd swear you'd swear
we've never seen a stranger around here
it's the way the dust clings to the air
after a strangers been there
you'd swear you'd swear

Is it a mean streak
to a certain degree
come whistling down the crookedest street
a mean streak in the ghost state
between the certain and the hesitating

a meanstreak
you'd swear you'd swear
we've never seen a stranger around here
it's the way the dust clings to the air
after the strangers been here
you'd swear you'd swear

was that you there?
that was you there
was that you there?
that was you there

The sssh sound in the bottoms of their boots
on the tops of the grass
as the hay-wagon
rolled past
and I'd swear I'd swear
the way the dust clings to the air
after the stranger's been there
I'd swear I'd swear
that that was you there
