The Drifter
Out on the porch step
Under the night
Down came the drifter
Under a Kentucky sky
This ain't like Virginia
Or the Montana plains
This ain't the mountains
But still it's home to me
The drifter didn't stay
He had to go away
But sometimes I wish I was the same
Because I'm tired of
Just living life
Slowly getting by
Sometimes I just want to pack my bags and take off through the night
I'll still try
To put up the good fight
Until one day I wake up and
The drifter is me
There's something in the sunset
Something I feel deep inside
That my dreams might just work out
All in good time
And if I don't make it
I won't stay here too long
My thoughts will start drifting
Then I'll be living this song
Because a drifter never stays
His home is any place
As long as he makes it through the night
He'll always take off
And leave everything behind
Because he's tired of
Just living life
Slowly getting by
Sometimes I just want to pack my bags and take off through the night
I'll still try
To put up the good fight
Until one day I wake up
And
The drifter is me
Under the night
Down came the drifter
Under a Kentucky sky
This ain't like Virginia
Or the Montana plains
This ain't the mountains
But still it's home to me
The drifter didn't stay
He had to go away
But sometimes I wish I was the same
Because I'm tired of
Just living life
Slowly getting by
Sometimes I just want to pack my bags and take off through the night
I'll still try
To put up the good fight
Until one day I wake up and
The drifter is me
There's something in the sunset
Something I feel deep inside
That my dreams might just work out
All in good time
And if I don't make it
I won't stay here too long
My thoughts will start drifting
Then I'll be living this song
Because a drifter never stays
His home is any place
As long as he makes it through the night
He'll always take off
And leave everything behind
Because he's tired of
Just living life
Slowly getting by
Sometimes I just want to pack my bags and take off through the night
I'll still try
To put up the good fight
Until one day I wake up
And
The drifter is me
