The Drifter - Clarence "Gatemouth" Brown

Once again

There’s a feeling inside of me

Nothing new

I’ve felt it before

Like the voice of hunger

Inside of me crying out

There’s got to be more

I’ll put my faith

In the arms of an open road

And you can come along

If you choose

'Cause there’s places

That I’ve never been to

Sunsets to be ridden into

Not a lot I can do

But give in to the drifter

There’s a drifter in me

Though I’ve tried it

I’m just not a settler

And nine to five

Don’t make it with me

Why deny it

It makes me feel better

To come alive

And prove that I’m free

I wear no chains

And I carry no heavy load

So much to gain

And nothing to lose

'Cause there’s places

That I’ve never been to

Sunsets to be ridden into

Not a lot I can do

But give in to the drifter

There’s a drifter in me
