Drift Away Lyrics

Day after day I'm more confused
Yet I look for the light in the pouring rain
You know it's a game I hate to lose
And I'm feeling the strain, and it's a shame

Oh, yeah, give me the beat, boys
And free my soul
I want to get lost in your rock and roll
And drift away
Give me the beat, boys
And free my soul
I want to get lost in your rock and roll
And drift away

Beginning to think that I'm wasting time
Can't understand the things I do
The world outside seems so unkind
And I'm counting on you to carry me through

Oh, oh, give me the beat, boys
And free my soul
I want to get lost in your rock and roll
And drift away
Give me the beat, boys
And free my soul
I want to get lost in your rock and roll
And drift away

When my mind is free
You know a melody can move me
And when I'm feeling blue
The guitar's coming through to soothe me

Thanks for the joy that you've given me
And I want you to know I believe in your song
Rhythm and rhyme and harmony
You help me along making me strong

Oh, oh, give me the beat boys
And free my soul
I want to get lost in your rock and roll
And drift away
Give me the beat boys
And free my soul
I want to get lost in your rock and roll
And drift away

Yeah, yeah, yeah, give me the beat boys
And free my soul
I want to get lost in your rock and roll
And drift away...
