I'm A Drifter
Bobby Goldsboro

You knew I could not stay for long when you asked me

To come over in the wee hours of the mornin.

I said I could not let the sunrise catch me sleepin

And that is why Ive givin you fair warnin.

And though you might have loved me like I never ever have been

Loved before your front door is open

And Ive got to keep on movin.

So I will stay with you a while and then Ill

Let my hitch hike thumb take me to where I wanna.

Because Ive got to keep on searchin for the dream that Ive been seekin

Since I left my home in Oklahoma

And whos to say but that I might not be back tomorrow

If I find there's only sorrow you may see me from your windowsill

Next mornin

Im a drifter and Ive seen the rain.

Im a drifter and Ive felt the pain, the pain that comes with loneliness.

So I drift from town to town searchin all around.

Lookin for the answer to my sorrow.

And if the answer is you then I'll be back tomorrow.

Lets make the most of time before the break of day

But don't try to make me stay if I don't want to.

Because Ive got to keep on searchin for that dream

And you can't bind me with the simple words I love you.

But if I realize the dream that Ive been searchin for

Is waitin here behind your door

Then I'll come back to stay if you still want me to.

Im a drifter and Ive seen the rain

Im a drifter and Ive felt the pain the pain that comes with loneliness.

So I drift from town to town searchin all around

Lookin for the answer to my sorrow

And if the answer is you then I'll be back tomorrow.

Im a drifter and Ive seen the rain

Im a drifter and Ive felt the pain the pain that comes with loneliness.

So I drift from town to town searchin all around

Lookin for the ans
