Drift Away

(album: Uptown - 1987)

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

Oh, give me the beat boys and free my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock n roll and drift away
Oh, give me 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
I don't understand the things I do
The world outside looks so unkind
Now I'm counting on you to carry me through

Oh, give me the beat boys and free my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock n roll and drift away
Yea, give me the beat boys and free my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock n roll and drift away

And 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
I want you to know I believe in your song
And rhythm and rhyme and harmony
You help me along making me strong

Oh, give me the beat boys and free my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock n roll and drift away
Give me the beat boys and free my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock n roll and drift away

Oh ho, ah no, give me the beat boys and free my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock n roll and drift away
Hey, hey, hey, yeah, give me the beat boys and free my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock n roll and drift away

Na, na, now won't ya, won't ya take me
Oh ha, take me
