The Drifter Songtext
von Waylon Payne

I′ve seen life's choices
They come and they go
They leave a mark deep
Buried below
Pass by like sweet dreams
They never last long
Capture the misery
In the words of this song
All day long I travel along
The drifter, the singer of songs
Who knows just how far I will roam
I′m the drifter, the singer of songs
The road that I've taken
Is fresh paved with tears
Kept bright with white lies
Sheltered by fear
Pursuin' love and labor
The matrix, the mire


Give in to sweet sin
And life′s cleansing fire
All day long I travel along
The drifter, the singer of songs
Who knows just how far I will roam
I′m the drifter, the singer of songs
Mama, don't you worry
Papa, don′t you cry
I sense you're wonderin′
Know you know why
The life that I'm livin′
The life you showed me
Take what you're given
Be what you be
All day long I travel along
The drifter, the singer of songs
Who knows just how far I will roam
I'm the drifter, the singer of songs
