Lyrics

Drifter

(Bolin/coverdale)

I was born a rambling man
An'i never got the chance
To settle down an' get a hold on love
Takin' air, an' movin' 'round
Is all I can see that I'm doin'
As' it is bringin' me down...
Drivin' on a highway, going' nowhere
Desolation destination
Guess I'll find it somewhere
I know if there's trouble
I ain't takin the blame
Thats why I keep movin
So nobody knows my name

Born a loser
I'm beyond the law
Woman behind me
Never can find me
They can never get together
What I've been here for
Cos' I'm the drifter...

Rollin' on...
Ain't waistin' my time no more
