Driftin'

Driftin
Driftin away
I got myself a mansion
And I gave it away
Its not the world thats heavy
Its just the things that you say
But Im driftin
Driftin away
Driftin
Driftin
Driftin along
I read myself the worries
And the worries were gone
I can run when I want to
And I sleep like a dog
Im just driftin
Driftin along
The suit-coats say
There is money to be made
They get so damn excited
But I guess its their way
My road it may be lonely
Just because its not paved
Its good for driftin
Driftin away
Aw the suit-coats say
There is money to be made
They get so damn excited
Nothing gets in their way
My road it may be lonely
Just because its not paved
Its good for driftin
Driftin away
Driftin
Driftin
Driftin uh-huh
I feel like going back there
But never for long
I sometimes wonder if they know that Im gone
Im just driftin
Driftin along
Driftin
Driftin along
Driftin
Driftin

Driftin Too Far From Shore

I didnt know that youd be leavin
Or who you thought you were talkin to.
I figure maybe were even
Or maybe Im one up on you.
I send you all my money
Just like I did before.
I tried to reach you honey,
But youre driftin too far from shore.
Driftin too far from shore
Driftin too far from shore
Driftin too far from shore
Driftin too far from shore
I aint gonna get lost in this current,
I dont like playing cat and mouse.
No gentleman likes making love to a servant.
Especially when hes in his fathers house.
I never could guess your weight, baby,
Never needed to call you my whore.
I always thought you were straight, baby,
But youre driftin too far from shore.
Driftin too far from shore
Driftin too far from shore
Driftin too far from shore
Driftin too far from shore
Well these times and these tunnels are haunted,
The bottom of the barrel is too.
I waited years sometimes for what I wanted.
Everybody cant be as lucky as you.
Never no more do I wonder,
Why you dont never play with me any more.
At any moment you could go under,
cause youre driftin too far from shore.
Driftin too far from shore
Driftin too far from shore
Driftin too far from shore
Driftin too far from shore
You and me we had completeness,
I give you all of what I could provide
We werent on the wrong side, sweetness,
We were the wrong side.
Ive already ripped out the phones, honey.
You cant walk the streets in a war.
I can finish this alone, honey,
Youre driftin too far from shore.

Lost Sailor

Compass card is spinning, helm is swinging to and fro
Oh, where is the dog star, oh, wheres the moon.
Youre a lost sailor, been away too long at sea.
Somedays the gales are howling, sometimes the sea is still as glass.
Oh, raise the main sail, oh, lash the mast.
Youre a lost sailor, been away too long at sea.
Now the shorelines beckon, there is a price for being free.
Theres a sea bird cryin and theres a ghost wind blowing
And its calling you, to that misty swirling sea.
Till the chains of your dreams are broken,
No place in this world you can be.
Youre a lost sailor, been away too long at sea.
Now the shorelines beckon, there is a price for being free.
You pay for being free, Ill tell ya freedom dont come easy,
Free dont always come for free,
Sometimes its hard to know what to believe in.
Where to go, who to go, where to be, who to be.
That means youre driftin.... driftin
Yeah driftin and dreamin, really goin on a dream now.
Really goin on a feelin, really goin on a feelin.
Driftin, driftin and dreamin.
Cause its a place youve never been
Maybe a place youve never seen now
You can hear them callin on the wind
Driftin and dreamin, driftin and dreamin.
Really goin on a dream now, really goin on a dream now,
Really goin on a dream now.

I Think About You

I oughta be workin'
But I can't concentrate
I oughta be sleepin'
'Steada stayin' up late
When I oughta be doing all the things I should do
I think about you

I oughta be writin'
But I can't find the song
Just sittin' here driftin'
Driftin' along
There's only one thing that I wanna do
And that's think about you

Chorus

I think about you - I can't get no rest
I think about you - there ain't no one else
It's all I can do - I can't help myself
Ya - I think about you

I could go cruisin'
But I've had enough
I could go drinkin'
But I can't stand the stuff
It just don't do me like it used to do
I'd rather think about you

Driftin Away

With all of my heart, I know I could love you
But, with all of my soul, Im driftin away
With all of my mind, I know you could save me from myself and anything else,
With all of my strength, I wanna reach out for you
With every breath, I call out your name
With every step, I just wanna turn around and say
Baby make it okay
But Im so afraid
That youve forgiven me one too many times
And Im so afraid
To give my heart again, just to have a change of mind
And Im not quite sure that you can trust me
And I would hate to have you find me again
Baby, like the wind, driftin away
It blows and nobody knows where its going to
(Im driftin away)
It blows and nobody know what its gonna do
With all of my heart, I know I disappointed you
And although Im real sorry
I dont know how to save this time
But, if I would lose you
I know I would go completely out of my mind
Im running out of time
And Im so afraid that youve forgiven me one too many times
And Im so afraid to give my heart again just to have a change of mind
And Im not quite sure that you can trust me
And I would hate to have you find me again
Baby, like the wind, driftin away
It blow and nobody knows where its going to
(driftin away)
It blows and nobody knows what its gonna do
(you see my heart at night)
At night you can hear it cry as the tear drops fall from heavens eyes
(fallin down)
And somehow you know its true, these tears that fall are fallin for you
(fallin for you)
It blows and nobody knows wheres it going to
(fallin down)
It blows and nobody knows what its gonna do
At night you can hear it cry as the tear drops fall from heavens eyes
And somehow you know its true these tears that fall are for you
(repeat)

Coolin Down

(john farrar)
Take all the time that you need to be certain
Say nothing till you can say what you mean
Dont stay with me just to save me from hurtin
I may be young but Im not green
Im in no hurry for the show
To hear what I already know
cause youve been coolin down
Even a fool could see
Coolin down
Driftin away from me
Day by day love fades away
Coolin down, coolin down
Trapped in your dreams for too long youve been yearnin
To find yourself live a life of your own
The love has died and it wont be returnin
I feel so helpless and alone
Now everything I try to do
Is right for me but wrong for you
cause youve been coolin down
Even a fool could see
Coolin down
Driftin away from me
Day by day love fades away
Coolin down, coolin down

Don't you take your time young man
Keep on driftin and

Boy don't let your focus change
Takin out the demons in your range, hey

Sweet love and sunshine
If it's all in the air
Then it's all on your mind
Breathe baby
Come back to the world
Dig up all your pearls
Teach the boys and girls, hey
Livin in a world that's oh so strange
Boy don't let your focus change
Takin out the demons in your range, hey
Livin in a world that's oh so fast
Gotta make your money last
Learn from the past, oh

Im A Drifter

Im a drifter, a driftin drifter
Got no place to call my home no more
Im a wanderer, a wandering wanderer
Got no one to call my own no more
Got no strings to tie me down
Got no cause to hang around
What difference does it make which way I go
Got an empty feelin down inside
Still I need to stay alive
And who can tell what waits beyond this road
Im a drifter, a driftin drifter
Got no one to call my own no more
Got no strings to tie me down
Got no cause to hang around
What difference does it make which way I go
Got an empty feelin deep inside
Still I need to stay alive
Who can tell what waits beyond this road
Im a drifter, a driftin drifter
Got no one to call my own no more
Tag:
Got no place to call my home no more

Little Ol' Cowgirl

She's a little ol' cowgirl from out Texas way
Countin' the nights 'til the fiddler plays
Workin' all week just doin' her thing
She likes punchin' doggies but she loves to swing
And when she hears that backbeat rhythm driftin' through the door
She can't talk, she can't sit still, she can't stay off of that floor
Kickin' her heels up lordy look at her twirl
Everybody wants to boogie on down
With the little ol' cowgirl
She's got skin tight blue jeans, a big Stetson hat
Knee high boots well how about that
That rodeo buckle sure does shine
She cuts a two-step in a travelin' line
And when she hears that backbeat rhythm driftin' through the door
She can't talk, she can't sit still, she can't stay off of that floor
Kickin' her heels up lordy look at her twirl
Everybody wants to boogie on down
With the little ol' cowgirl
So listen up cowboy, here's a little advice
Before you make your move son you'd better think twice
'Cause she don't stop and she won't go
'Til they bring that house down with the cotton-eyed joe
And when she hears that backbeat rhythm driftin' through the door
She can't talk, she can't sit still, she can't stay off of that floor
Kickin' her heels up lordy look at her twirl
Everybody wants to boogie on down
With the little ol' cowgirl

Going Down Slow

Well Ive had my fun if I dont get well no more
Well Ive had my fun if I dont get well no more

Tell her to pray for me

Keep On Ridin

Keep on ridin ...
By tomorrow morning
At the early dawn
I gotta hit the road
So long lady
Till another day, right now
I gotta be movin on
Theres another town and
The singer needs a song
I know youre on your own
Ill be back before too long
I gotta do what I gotta do
And you know how
My heart loves to run, I gotta ride
Keep on ridin
Keep on ridin now
Theres a city waiting
And a railroad station
Where my face is known
And an old hotel
That I know so well
Its a little bit like home
Its a situation
Not of my own choosing
And though a gamblin man
Would say that I was losing
I started out to win
And Ill do it again
Im never givin in
cause if it comes down
To my heart, or to my pride
Im gonna ride
Keep on ridin, keep on ridin
Keep on ridin, yeah
Keep on ridin, keep on ridin
And I know you say
Im driftin, driftin on a dream
Youd better watch your step boy
It may not be what it seems
I just cant shake
This feeling here inside
This heart of mine
Keeps tellin me to ride, ride, ride

In A Space

In a space allocated to me by the human race
Inhabiting this area until I die this space is occupied
Im in a space leased by kind permission of the human race
Close up I am big but far away Im small and hardly here at all
cause in a space out in space
We disappear without a trace
Now Im out in inner space
And lookin at the people. standing face to face
And filling up the space
Men and women boys and girls
There are so many people in the world
Thinkin about the world
And all the people in it
And Im staring at the stars
And into the infinite
In a world within a world
On a planet thats
Driftin in a space
Seconds into minutes and minutes
Into hours and hours into days
And days into months and months into years
And years into decade tens into thousands
Thousands into millions, millions into billions
Billions into zillions and forever and forever
In a space allocated by the human race
Somewhere in outer space its far away and I like it that way
Now Im out in inner space
And lookin at the people, standing face to face
And filling up the space
Men and women boys and girls
There are so many people in the world
Thinkin about the world
And all the people in it
And Im staring at the stars
And into the infinite
In a world within a world
On a planet thats
Driftin in a space
In a space, in a space, in a space
Now Im out in inner space
And lookin at the people standing face to face
And filling up the space
On a planet thats
Driftin in a space

New Tune

Its written in the surface of her skin
Theres been a baby within
Given away in love
I see it in the little lines
Around her eyes, across her brow
Shell be driftin away from me now
See the shape of feeling thats not quite there
Inside her soul
Love has gone away now, leaving behind an empty hole
Who am I to try to compete
With again, as the silence so easily rushes in
I will fly away
It was something I only dreamed of
Something that Im not quite sure of
Something that Ill never tell you about

Downtown Life

Music by daryl hall, john oates, rick iontosca
Lyrics by daryl hall, john oates, sara allen
Do it downtown in from the outside
Yeah, find the scene & work it brother
Moving thru sound
Citys like wild life
Overgrown & living undercover
Wound up so tight
We love the downtown life
Driftin thru the day
Waiting for the nite, oh
Downtown life. it feels so right
It keeps me hangin on
Velvet lou was a neighbor of mine
Now he walks the dog in jersey, brother
Yuppies in black doin white collar crime
Scared away the. local color
But they cant steal the nite
We love the downtown life
Driftin thru the day
Waiting for the nite, oh
Downtown life it feels so right
It keeps me hangin on
Downtown life
Drifting thru the nite
Waiting for the lite to come
Downtown life it feels so right
It keeps me hangin on
My baby knows shes got to go for this kind of life
'cause city love cant stand. to see the sunlite
Dawn patrol better leave me alone
'cause I can only take it for so long
Going down isnt hard to do
The king of clubs and.queen of hearts fall too
She says, if you believe this is only a lonely time,
Stay at home boys the blues are lost on you
Aint it true
We love the downtown life
Drifting thru the day
Waiting for the nite, oh
Downtown life it feels so right
It keeps me hangin on
Downtown life
Drifting thru the nite
Waiting for the night to come
Downtown life it feels so right
It keeps me hangin on

beam me up Scotty

beam me up Scotty
I can't get in reverse
we're heading for Nirvana
or maybe somewhere worse

just get me off this planet
we're orbiting too fast
whizzing round in circles
running out of gas

the Angel of co-ordinates
alone behind the bar
broke it to him gently
the Starship's gone awa

now a lonesome voice comes driftin
from the tumbleweed salon
'can't you hear me Scotty
it's me just hanging on'

Smoke Along The Track

(alan rose)
One day the train was passin
I caught it comin by
To look this old world over under gods blue sky
My darlin stood there weepin as I was looking back
I kissed my baby cryin in the smoke along the track
Goodbye so long until I come back home
Youll be my dream
Goodbye so long, theres lots of places that Ive never seen
Ill always be a drifter but Ill be driftin back
To where I left you cryin in the smoke along the track
I like to keep on goin it helps me when Im blue
I get the urge to travel thats all I want to do
I just cant settle down because I like to roam
And when I hear that whistle blow Ive gotta move along
Goodbye so long theres something down the track keeps callin me
Goodbye so long I guess thats just the way Ill always be
So when I get that feelin dont try to hold me back
Id only leave you crying in that smoke along the track
I know my baby loves me I love my baby too
But he dont understand me when Im feelin blue
And when I hear that whistle blow, I hurry home and pack
And leave my baby cryin in the smoke along the track.
Goodbye, so long, I hate to leave you, but Ive got to go
Goodbye, so long, its coming down just hear that whistle blow
Itll be here in a minute, youll wave and Ill look back
Im gonna leave you cryin in the smoke along the track.
Goodbye so long until I come back home
Youll be my dream
Goodbye so long, theres lots of places that Ive never seen
Ill always be a drifter but Ill be driftin back
To where I left you cryin in the smoke along the track
To where I left you cryin in the smoke along the track

Feeling Good

Birds flying high
You know how I feel
Sun in the sky
You know how I feel
Reeds driftin' on by
You know how I feel
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life

And I'm feeling good

Fish in the sea
You know how I feel
River running free
You know how I feel
Blossom in the tree
You know how I feel

Too Far Gone

(j.p. maunick/g. harvey)
He wanted to believe that the
Field was his to play
Says hes happy that shes gone away
Any fool can tell shes here to stay
From his mind she would never stray
Hes trying to hide it
But inside the pain cant be denied
I guess he's too far gone
No hes spendin all his time tryin
To tell the world hes free
Depp inside he know hell never be
And now it seems that hes lost the key
Hes like a raft driftin out at sea
Hes tryin to to fake it
But the sadness is all that he can feel
I guess that hes too far gone
He cannot see that as he talks
Hes takin a road that is goin nowhere
Theres no tellin hime, hes too far gone
Hes walkin down the street lookin sure of himself today
Hes never short of things to say
In his mind he knows hes lost his way
Its the proce he has to pay.
Gone too far
Too far gone
Gone too far
Too far gone

Drifter In The Dark

Do you ever walk alone?
Like a drifter in the dark
Seeking out what isnt there
Looking only for a spark
From a girl whos all alone
Maybe shes a-driftin too
Like a shadow in the night
Waitin just to meet with you
And then perhaps in love youll stay
Or fall and go your separate ways
Still searchin for a spark
Like a drifter in the dark
Doodn doo doo doodn doo (da da da da da) [8x]
(repeat first verse)
Like a drifter in the dark [4x]

Gangsta Tears

[Chorus 2X: Nas]
(I'm cryin gangsta tears) Only a few can feel my pain
(I'm cryin gangsta tears) Only if I could show you
(I'm cryin gangsta tears) Only if you was in this game
(I'm cryin gangsta tears) You'd feel the whirlwind blow you
[Nas]
My daily dose is ferocious
I smoke dope, just as strong as opium
Hopin I'm close to just breakin frustration;
speakin on podiums
Facin this cold world head-on, dead on arrivals
Young black, poor education guns crack
The gang violence done that
Nighttime, the guns blow, streets got snitches
dealers, bitches, killers and blunt smoke, clubs open
Benzes, Jeeps, dubs pokin out tires
Thugs with heat, pay security, to let them slide in
Huh, I'm at the corner driftin, sippin, Cognac
To' back, know dat soldiers is packin no secret
Though I'm broken hearted women done left me hopeless in darkness
Smokin, driftin in sickness, stand by oceans watch the sun glisten
I'm soul-searchin, I'm soul-hurtin
What happens when money don't make you happy
I wish this on no person
Ate at the classy places, made all my fashion statements
I got no friends I'm lonely, don't want no pity save it
[Chorus]
[Nas]
Yo, ride in the nighttime, I'm high, got on my flight suit
Hood with the night sign, dark colors on
Pull up the block my brother's on
I hug him and we blow trees (sup nigga?) Scopin for police
Guns on our hip, fiends want a fix, stumblin tricks (right here)
We left the drug game alone
Brothers is jealous cause we still call the hood our home
What could you tell us?
At funerals my eyes swell up (damn)
Look at my dog lay in the casket
Twin shotgun barrels had blasted
And rest in peace for him, is all I could whisper
as I paid respect, kissed his face and felt hard skin
It's part of God's plan, but why so many niggaz have to die?
It's crowded in this place, let the priest and pastor by
Bandana covers my eye, I'm scopin through the room
I see killers and thieves, mob bosses and goons
And yet I feel responsible when my nigga's pronounced dead
inside the hospital, I wish there's somethin I could do, but..
[Chorus]
