The Drifter

I'm just a drifter,

I go from place to place,

I'm just a drifter,

nobody knows my face,

and when I go into a town,

the people there they, put me down,

they say, hey drifter go way, don't want your kind around,

so I go my way, back to the highway,

I'm just a drifter,

no place to call my home,

I'm just a drifter,

out in this world alone,

I see lovers, pass me by,

I watch them all, with a tear in my eye,

I can't help thinking, how lucky they are,

laughin' and talking, as they go walkin',

and at night, stars are bright,

I see your face before me,

it bring back a memory,

of days gone bye, of you and I,

and then I cry, oh how I cry, wooah

I'm just a drifter,

I go from town to town,

I'm just a drifter,

but I wasn't always down,

cos' once I had, a girl by my side,

a love so strong, that, money couldn't buy, no no no,

but heaven called, and took her away,

out of my arms and left me to wander,

I'm just a drifter,

I go from town to town.
