Lee, Johnny - Pickin' Up Strangers Lyrics
Picking up strangers, let me tell you about the dangers
You never know what they're out to get from you
You never know what they're gonna try to do
Picking up strangers, let me tell you about the dangers
Next thing you know want to steal your heart away
Sometimes this old life, it seems like highway
And it keeps rolling on and on
And on that highway you meet a lot of strangers
You pass a lot of dangers on your way home
Picking up strangers, let me tell you about the dangers
If you don't like taking chances then
You better keep moving on my friend
Picking up strangers, let me tell you about the dangers
Some are just common bees they say
Next thing you know want to steal your heart away
(Picking up strangers)
Let me tell you about the dangers
You never know what they're out to get from you
You never know what they're gonna try to do
Picking up strangers, let me tell you about the dangers
Some are just common bees they say
Next thing you know want to steal your heart away
(Picking up strangers)
Let me tell you about the dangers
You never know what they're out to get from you
You never know what they're

Lee, Johnny Pickin' Up Strangers Comments
Don't stop ! Keep moving
Truth!..
Where can I get a hat like that, need one!
Good old classic country
Lots of wisdom in this song..
When I met Johnny I told him country music wouldn't be the same without him!
I picked up a stranger once. 4 days later I was in my Doctors office!!
Johnny Lee is one of my favorite country music of all-time and every song he sung back then became a hit song. This is one of my favorite country music song of all-time.
Someone on here named Caron Harrison has been really digging at me. I'm here to tell ya Caron don't go there. If you think I won't return fire. You are sorely mistaken!!!! And,I'm pretty damn tough!!!
That's why I don't pick up strangers. Lol. And no stranger is going to pick me up either.
Here in Mississippi, Bay Springs we have a real country station WIZK there on FM 101.9 and on line
LoL
Came here after listenin to the Picking Up Strangers Podcast with Friendly Frank and Mike.
As real as Johnny Lee could have gotten
Caden Monier

I tried to warn my ex but she wouldn't heed the warnings of this song. 😥

i love waking up to this song and drinkin my coffee! representing real country music in Southside Chicago Shithole lol
Damn, I sure do miss Houston back in the early 80's. Gilley's was the place to be. Some of the best, finest damn girls in the world. The hell with California girls, Texas chicks rock!
Thank God people do stupid shit. Hallelujah. :) <3
Do not know what this new country / rap is nowadays it's all these young ones poor old Merle and Jones should still be here to show him how to do it
this song went to #3 on the country charts in 1981!!!
He has a great voice! I love his music! We need more music like this coming out from Nashville again!
My grandfather used to have tequila shots with Poncho Villa
Real real real music as real as music can get
I miss country music 😭
Wish I could have seen johnny at gilley's in his prime.
Me too! Saw Mickey Gilley a few months ago! Sad he can't play piano anymore, but he still sings the hell out of them songs! He's 83!
My wife & I seen Gilley & JL last June. They sounded incredible still Johnny became a friend of mine after that day. Subscribe to my Youtube channel & check out a few of my cover versions of Johnny's songs if you get the time.
Good song brings back.memories
Johnny rocks !!!!!
I am 15, i love country, rock, rock n roll. I really dont like new music.
Looting people in red dead 2 like

I always remember the movie that this was featured in with Robert Blake. Good flick if you haven't seen it.
Country music singers today suck cause they are not country

If your looking for a great song just shop here
The Boars Nest. Dukes of Hazard
Seen him in concert
He puts on a great show doesn't he?
I wish country music had singers like Johnny Lee. Today’s country music singers dress lpoorly.
Today's Country is tragic. At 22 I can't get my foot in the door in Nashville because my sound is to traditional.
I'm only 16 yrs old...and I absolutely love this..along with Tom T hall... Marty Robbins...willyNelson...and Jonny cash...when did country music leave country? this modern country music is not country at all...it's a disgrace to country.usic and the legends who made it what it was
Kai Marci I love all that shit. Tom t hall is a good story teller. im 24 now. when I was your age I was bumpin charlie rich early Willie. look up bloody Mary morning by Willie. also faron young hello walls. good luck
Same here man and i'm just goin' on 23.
Would love to this song sung live at Gilleys. And I never been to Texas!
Check it out. Everything truly is bigger in Texas.
Unfortunately Gilley's burned down in 1990! It was a great place to go in Pasadena, Texas in the seventies! But you're in luck, Gilley's Complex, known as Gilley's Dallas, is a multi-purpose entertainment and dining complex located in Dallas, Texas.
I grew up with the old country thank God it's still around
This is real country , I love old country music.
Could of heard a heart bteak //// BRAVO JOHNNY LEE
Magic......Just Magic......
I use to pick up strangers
County sucks
Then don't listen to it, honey. Not everyone has an appreciation for fine , true music.
I love playing this one in the bar on the jutbox
This is one of my all-time favorite classic country songs. Classic country is so damn awesome!!!!!!
good morning devon salmond
I had this cassette tape and I played it until it would not rewind it
wilfred heggart I had the 8 track of this and played it so much that it wouldn't skip to this track.
Love it
Picking up strangers is about the only way to live unless you want to be a recluse. I'm not just referring to romantic relationships either. Everyone's a stranger when you first meet them. Some of them will become your friends, others are indeed your worst fears.
These songs never gets old thay will always sound great yesterday today and tomorrow
love old country, you can never find this kinda of music on the radio anymore. I saw Johnny Lee last week at a rodeo dance. he was so amazing
Emma Juren you can hear it in 105 3 KZNN Saturday morning from 6 to 10 AM central time. Stream online at resultsradiionlibe.com
awesome song. Appreciate the upload. Good Southern roots here, my friend.. Augusta, Georgia, till the day I die. Love me some Richmond County.
this is true country
Erick Ja as opposed to
As opposed to the bullshit on Country Radio today.
faye miskie walking in my aunt ruths house with out knocking
How could anyone possibly not like this?
That fucking Special K ad is the most annoying thing on the planet.
thank you for this reminder i forgot how good these song are
1000 like!
I miss this era of country. Bass driven with the Fender Rhodes complimenting in the background. RIP.
How in the hell is Johnny Lee not in the Country Music Hall of Fame, he carried country music for two years by hisself.
He isn't a great entertainer? Have you ever been to one of his live shows? No disrespect but Johnny Lee puts on a better show at 72 than most people in their 20's could ever hope for.
Here's another country song writer and singer that's that in the country Hall of Fame that is Eddie Rabbitt
Vern Gosdin isn't in the hof either!
Chris Coble Because his peak was 4 years and once The Urban Cowboy movement was done so was he.
Because he didn't conform to the norm. He didn't fit in to their politics. There were a few like him. Steve Wariner had that same attitude. They didn't need all of that hoopla. They were fine just on their own and I think the ones who did this were some of the better singers and more down to earth...
this is good country music
Lol, this should be the theme song for online dating
yankeeedandy . yes and lets meet.
It's a shame I have to come to YouTube to hear an authentic country song. Sure as hell cant hear one on the radio
I do the same thing brother I don't listen to radio ,this so called country has meaning
What sadder then that brother you can't find a good ole bar anymore that will play this kinda music! Fuck um I'll go home and get out my collection!
If I was given a chance to be a radio disk jockey for a Nashville classic country radio station, I would be playing songs like this that you never hear any more.
u have ta move to Kansas!
ladies and gents. .... REAL COUNTRY!
I liked all of it ok
THE 70'S COUNTRY WAS GOOD, BUT THE 80'S WAS A GREAT TIME TO BE LISTING TO COUNTRY MUSIC..
best in 2016
Ford build gaya as fuck
Love the movie that this song was used, Coast to Coast.
Does anyone know the name of a song that goes...I can hear those whispers...their getting loud as thunder talking saying we should be home now. whispers why cant they leave us alone......I believe johnny lee sang it
That's "Whispers" by Bobby Borchers
Great advice, Kids!!

I swear to God man yesterday I was out mudding in a place called pickwick I got stuck and as I was walking back to get my uncle to help get me out a silver jeep pulls up and they give me a ride as soon as they turn on the radio this song played funniest thing ever

That song is the theme of my life, I met my girlfriend on March 2008 on the bus to home, and we lost each other till November 21st 2008. We exchanged phone numbers and got together. Today, we are engaged for 6,5 years.
