Drifters Wife Lyrics - Breezin' At The Cafe - J. J. Cale

Had me a woman down in tennessee 

Boy she used to love me 

Free fever got me and I had to go 

I never seen that woman no more 

New york city is a place I been 

I was there one time with a travellin' band 

Young girl there wanted me to stay 

I think she wanted me to pay 

Roll it out, roll it in 

Here we go down the road again 

Drifters life is a drifters wife 

Don't say I didn't tell you so 

Travellin' man now he don't know 

Only what he hears on the radio 

Politics and money don't bother him 

Only good lookin' women and a bottle of gin 

Portland, oregon, to the mexican line 

Boy let me tell you the women are fine 

If you don't hang around there very long 

They'll never ever know you're gone
