I'm A Drifter Lyrics - Singles - Goldsboro Bobby

You knew I could not stay for long when you asked me 

to come over in the wee hours of the mornin. 

I said I could not let the sunrise catch me sleepin 

and that is why Ive givin you fair warnin. 

And though you might have loved me like I never ever have been 

loved before your front door is open 

and Ive got to keep on movin. 

So I will stay with you a while and then Ill 

let my hitch hike thumb take me to where I wanna. 

Because Ive got to keep on searchin for the dream that Ive been seekin 

since I left my home in Oklahoma 

And whos to say but that I might not be back tomorrow 

if I find theres only sorrow you may see me from your windowsill 

next mornin 

Im a drifter and Ive seen the rain. 

Im a drifter and Ive felt the pain, the pain that comes with loneliness. 

So I drift from town to town searchin all around. 

Lookin for the answer to my sorrow. 

And if the answer is you then Ill be back tomorrow. 

Lets make the most of time before the break of day 

but dont try to make me stay if I dont want to. 

Because Ive got to keep on searchin for that dream 

and you cant bind me with the simple words I love you. 

But if I realize the dream that Ive been searchin for 

is waitin here behind your door 

then Ill come back to stay if you still want me to. 

Im a drifter and Ive seen the rain 

Im a drifter and Ive felt the pain the pain that comes with loneliness. 

So I drift from town to town searchin all around 

Lookin for the answer to my sorrow 

And if the answer is you then Ill be back tomorrow. 

Im a drifter and Ive seen the rain 

Im a drifter and Ive felt the pain the pain that comes with loneliness. 

So I drift from town to town searchin all around 

Lookin for the ans
