I'm Just A Drifter |
| I’m just a drifter, I ain’t got no place to go |
| I’m just a drifter, I ain’t got no place to go |
| I’m like the prodigal son, driftin' from town to town |
| Looky here |
| I left my home, 'the age of twelve years old |
| I left my home, ooh, at the age of twelve years old |
| I was a drifter, driftin' through this land |
| Looky here now! |
| My dear old mother died and left me, and my father didn’t want me around no more |
| My mother died and left me, and my father didn’t want me around no more |
| My dear old dad was a drunker, he stayed drunk both night and day |
| Shame on me! |
| Now bust it! |
| I’m a drifter, driftin' through this land |
| I’m a drifter, drifter, drifter, I’m a drifter, drifting through this land |
| I got nobody, no one to care for me |
| Looky here now baby |
| Hold my hand now, baby, hold my hand |
| Leave me, leave me, leave me, through the night, through the night and day baby |
| I’m a natural born drifter, natural born drifter baby, drifting through the |
| land baby |
| Oh yea, oh yea |
| I’m just a drifter baby |
| Little Johnny Lee’s a drifter, I’m talking about short John the drifter |
| I’d love a friend, I ain’t got no friend, baby |
| I’m a natural born drifter baby, I’m going from town to town, baby |
| Baby, I’m a drifter, baby |
| Ooh! |
| Ooh, ooh |
