Drifter Lyrics

[Intro]
Rock and roll, yeah!

[Verse]
Look out now, baby, won't you take me away?
Sitting here, I think it's gonna be a new day
I'm gonna get my song, and I can't go wrong
I gotta keep on roaming, gotta sing my song

[Chorus]
What you feeling when you hold me tight?
I wanna cuddle up to you tonight
Gonna get you feeling so secure
Listen, child, don't you see there's a cure?
Anywhere, got to get you away
Feels so good, think it's gonna be a new day

I'm gonna get my song till it can't go on
I'm gonna keep on roaming, gonna sing my song

[Bridge/Guitar Solo]
Ooh, yeah, ow-whoa, whoa
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, yeah, ow-whoa, whoa
I keep on drifting

[Chorus]
What you feeling when you hold me tight?
I wanna cuddle up to you tonight
Gonna get you feeling so secure
Listen, child, don't you see there's a cure? Ooh, yeah
Anywhere, got to get you away
Feels so good, think it's gonna be a new day
I'm gonna get my song till it can't go on
I'm gonna keep on roaming, gonna sing my song
I wanna rock 'n' roll! Ooh, yeah!

[Guitar Solo]

[Outro]
I'm gonna sing my song, yeah
And it won't take long
I'm gonna sing my song, yeah
I want you to sing along
I want you to sing it, sing it, sing it, sing it along
I want you to sing it, sing it, sing it, sing it along
I want you to sing it, sing it, sing it, sing it along
I want you to sing it, sing it, sing it, sing it along
'Cause I'm a drifter
Drifting on
Yeah!
