Winstone was born in Homerton, Hackney, London. Winstone moved to Enfield when he was seven, and grew up on a council estate just off the A10 road. His father, Raymond J. Winstone (1933-2015), ran a fruit and vegetable business, while his mother, Margaret (née Richardson; 1932-1985), had a job emptying fruit machines. Winstone recalls playing with his friends on bomb sites until "Moors Murderers" Ian Brady and Myra Hindley were arrested for killing three children.

Ray Winstone: A Life in Pictures Highlights
Never ever really knew you
I never even had the chance
It might not matter to you
You might claim self defense
Deep down on the inside
It's always been the same
You and I are strangers
Like Strangers on a train
Chorus
Let me introduce myself
After all these years
I don't believe we've ever really met
Sitting side by side with our souvenirs
I've been waiting, but it hasn't happened yet
Cause we're strangers, the fact remains
Just like strangers, strangers on a train
Why can't I remember?
Back when I was young?
Back when I was innocent
Tell me what went wrong
I didn't mean to make you crazy
I didn't mean to make you run
But if it made you crazy
Man, you ain't the only one
Chorus
I'll go down to the graveyard
Dig up all the bones
My father's, father's, father
I see my name on every stone
I got to find an answer
Got to break the chain
I don't want to be no stranger
Like strangers on a train
