Drifter Lyrics

(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' around

Is all I can see that I'm doin'

An' 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

That's why I keep movin'

So nobody knows my name

Born a loser

I'm beyond the law

Women behind me

Never can find me

They can never get together

What I've been here for

Cos I'm a drifter

Rollin' on

Ain't wastin' my time no more
