Drift Away Lyrics by Mud

The Singles ’67 - ’78

0

Day after day I'm more confused
But I look for the light through the pouring rain
You know it's a game that I hate to loose
I'm feeling the strain
Ain't it a shame

Gimme the beat boys and free my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock 'n' roll and drift away
Gimme the beat boys and free my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock 'n' roll and drift away

Beginning to think that I'm wasting time
And I don't understand the things I do
The world outside looks so unkind
Now it's up to you to carry me through

Gimme the beat boys and free my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock 'n' roll and drift away
Gimme the beat boys and free my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock 'n' roll and drift away

When my mind is free you know a melody can move me
And when I'm feelin' blue, the guitar's coming through to sooth me
Thank's for the joy that you've given me
I want you to know what I feel in the song
A rythem and a ryme and a harmony
To help me along
You're making me strong

Gimme the beat boys and free my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock 'n' roll and drift away
Gimme the beat boys and free my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock 'n' roll and drift away
