DRIFTER

Call me a drifter
I’ve got the drifter’s curse
Call me a drifter
I’ve got the drifter’s curse
I’m goin’ my way
You go yours

Hush now baby
No time to explain
Hush now
No time to explain
I’m goin’ to the prairie
Stand out in the rain

See that skyline
Comin’ down on me
See that skyline
Comin’ down on me
Wherever I go
I can’t get relief

Call me a drifter
I’ve got the drifter’s curse
Call me a drifter
I’ve got the drifter’s curse
I’m goin’ my way
You go yours

Way down in Ashgrove
Where my mamma’s from
Way down in Ashgrove
Where my mamma’s from
They shoot their wild dogs
Just to see them run

Somebody told me
My daddy he was good
Somebody told me
My daddy he was good
He left in the springtime
Came back nailed in wood

Oh now baby
Won’t you give me some
I need something
For when my day is done
I’ll be drifting
When those devils come

Call me a drifter
I’ve got the drifter’s curse
Call me a drifter
I’ve got the drifter’s curse
I’m goin’ my way
You go yours
