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 yeaI'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
