John Kay Drift Away Lyrics

Drift Away Lyrics

Words and music by Mentor Williams







Day after day I'm more confused



But I look for the light through the pouring rain



You know that's a game that I hate to lose



I'm feelin' the strain…now ain't that a shame







Oh gimme the beat boys and free my soul 



I wanna get lost in the rock and roll and drift away



Gimme the beat boys and free my soul 



I wanna get lost in the rock and 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







Chorus







And when my mind is free



You know a melody can move me



And when I'm feelin' blue



The guitars coming through to soothe me



Thanks for the joy you've given me



I want you to know I believe in song



Rhythm, rhyme and harmony



They've helped me along…they're making me strong
