The Drifter

Graeham Goble

[Verse 1]
I'm just a drifter
Movin' around from day to day
I live out on the highway
And sleep down in the subway when it rains

[Verse 2]
There once was a city girl
Who longed to love and hold me every night
But I had to run away, and leave her
To live my own life

[Verse 3]
I know the down and out
I've seen the way the people live (seen the way people live)
And I once had a doubt
That maybe there was more we all could give

[Verse 4]
Then I got older
And the wine and life lay heavy
On my mind
I'm not much wiser now
But thinkin' about it
Helps to pass the time
And I'm a drifter

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
I've been up, I've been down
I've been pushed around, still a drifter
Been got at 'n' fell flat
And come back every time
No luck at the table, I've never been able
To hang on to a dime
Still I find there's love in this heart of mine, ooo

[Verse 5]
Now I'm on the back-streets
Down with the beggars and the thieves
And I've seen the ladies who just lay about the city
When it breathes

[Verse 6]
I long to be settled down
But know I'll keep on movin' 'til I die, ohh oh ohh
And I never had a friend
I only caught the winkin' in her eye

[Outro]
Ooh, I'm a drifter
Keep on, keep on driftin'
Always be a drifter
Yeah
